That's very nice??

Tradeexcanada usually has a number of 8x60's - many of which are very early Sakos.

good to know - tks

A fellow would have to pay Lee $30.00 for a sizer die to reduce any .323's he wanted to that size - or maybe .319" or .320"- whatever fit nicely in the chamber with minimal neck expansion- better accuracy and case life.

Nice pick up there, if the bore is .318", Woodleigh make .318 projectiles as does Hawk bullets in the U.S. also make 180 gn and 200 gn bullets in .318" .

cheers
