I paid $1275 for the fx 300i bare scale. Since Im only reloading to hunt I can trickle the load by hand however that V3 system looks great if doing a lot of target shooting

Yes, have a chat with your nearest shop and put yourself down for whatever bits you require. Be prepared to wait or settle for for alternatives. Prices are going up. Now's not a bad time to own a 270...

Lapua SRP primer pockets are about .003 deeper than standard (0.122 versus 0.125). You must be crushing your primer anvils a fair bit, normally would set them 0.002-0.006 below case head.

All of the BSA's are good rifles but in true pommy tradition they started with the best Hunter/Regents/Majestics then went backwards to Monarch and finally the CF2. That is my opinion only but I own...

It can be internally threaded and an adapter made but it must be done on a lathe with a 4-jaw chuck and clocked true with the bore using a neat fitting spud. Any proper gunsmith should whack it out...
