[QUOTE="copper still, post: 2699520, member: 125488"] I am new to this so I'm sorry for rehashing what has probably been discussed. I searched the forum but couldn't find exactly what I am looking for. I am working toward having 2 rifles for hunting no farther that 600 yards but really under 500 yards. I'm new to hand loading but have a good mentor and have been enjoying it. I have no interest in hunting brown bear. I want to consolidate my rifles into 1 caliber and I am considering .30 and 7mm. I currently own a Tikka T3 270 WSM that I want to change caliber. The easy option is buy a 308 for the woods gun and wait until I can find a lightly used 300 WSM barrel to thread onto my 270 WSM. My preference is 7mm because I want to build up a woods gun in 7-08. Looking through brass availability in 2022-2023 7 WSM is looking real slim on availability. 7 SAUM brass seems more available but I'm not sure what it takes to change over or what limitations I will have in the Tikka. If you can give me some insight on what is the sensible and easiest options for conversion I would appreciate it. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
