[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 2387372, member: 10755"] Going 270/7WSM is not a bad idea, but your biggest issue is still gonna be brass availability. Have you seen brass anywhere of late in any WSM case? When I built my 270 Bee, I sourced 300 pieces of Norma brass and 5 boxes of factory 150g Weatherby ammo to run in the barrel. This cost me an absolute butt load of money, but I don’t have to hunt for brass for the life of the barrels, I have 2 now. You could make your brass from either of the other 2, but you will need to ream/turn your necks after forming in the FL die. I make several cartridges from other brass, you have to love doing it or you will hate all the steps. I find hydroforming to be an absolute PITA and I cannot handle the mess it makes on my bench….but it is what it is, right?! Cheers. [/QUOTE]
