Which brass to use to form 277 Fury case?

The 277 Fury (commercial brass case) is very close to the same as a 270-08 AI which I've been interested in for some time. McGowen (don't know about the other barrel companies) is offering it as standard chambering, and the 270-08 AI 40* as a custom chambering. So, the Fury would be less expensive and would avoid fire forming the case. My question, though, is which brass cartridge case would you use to form Fury brass? Could it be as simple as neck sizing a 7mm-08, or enlarging a 260, and then running thru a Fury forming die?
 
You don't have to fire from any unless you want to. You can buy 277 Fury brass.
But if you want to go through all that, I would recommend 260rem in Lapua.

How many do you need, I might be able to sale you some.
Sorry let me make this clear, I have 277 Fury brass. The commercial grade and with out the steel head.

I'm not yet in the market, just trying to figure out the options. My web search turned up only range fired brass, and hybrid brass, I didn't find a source for new. Still wondering what would be the best approach for forming the brass; what brass to use and what dies might be needed.

Sorry, but I missed your 260 Rem suggestion (too much turkey maybe). Would a 277 Fury sizing die be the only die I'd need with the 260? I have a 6mm-TCU I form from 223 brass, but for some reason this doesn't seem to be clicking with me. Over thinking it, I suppose.

Just get the brass from American Reloading. Works great.

Thank you AK. There doesn't appear to be very many options, but at least brass is obtainable. I guess I'm still on the fence about which mid-range caliber to choose for my next project.
