[QUOTE="VLD Pilot, post: 2082826, member: 103947"] I guess my point in posting this new arrival was only because MAYBE just maybe now we will finally see some long heavy .277 bullet offerings in addition to the 3 offered for the 6.8 Western. Those 3 loaded offerings are a great start. Nobody offers a 7-8 twist barrel from the factory except custom makers (that I know of). I believe now you will see a few more offered for those that do not want a high end custom. For me, if I ever decide to build on a .277 cartridge, the bullets would vary from mid to heavy weight and that's worth building for. I'd probably do a .270 Win. Case capacity is roughly the same but needs a LA. The 6.8 can be done on a SA using those heavy bullets. [/QUOTE]
