thanks guys for all your replies. After reading the posts I did some reading/research on the 8x60 and after learning more about the caliber I have decided to not make any changes to the rifle. As there are no ammo available in Canada for the 8x60 S, I have decided to get into handloading and will be shortly getting a RCBS kit to get me started, I have the following questions.


1. The Gun came with 2 RCBS dies which I did not pay any attention to, but yesterday I had a good look at them, one says F.L N and the other is Seat N, but both says 8x60 and not 8x60 S. Are the dies same for 8x60 & 8x60 S?

2. 8x60 S brass is available from both Huntingtons & Buffalo Arms. Huntingtons brass is RWS and will cost me $2 per piece by the time it reaches me in Canada. Huntingtons brass does not have any name and would cost me about 90 cents, so I guess they are locally made. I have ordered 40 pieces of RWS brass from Huntingtons but if there is no difference it will be cheaper ordering from Buffalo Arms. Is there any difference that I should be aware of?

3. I still would like to own a mauser based 30-06 or 270 for regular use, what should I expect to pay for a new or near new FN non military action if I can find one?

Thanks in advance for your patience and answers.
