You can start to see a difference at distance with the 150 SMK. The 7.5 twist most certainly benefits that bullet. I'm guessing if Berger ever enters the 155/156 in the market the 7.5 will be the standard.

I've seen a few on this thread looking for premium 300WM brass. I was very lucky to find some at retail cost so I'm set for a while.
Here's some of what I found for Nosler. Nothing listed for Norma on GB at this time.
I don't need any more, but this one is very tempting.
