    Privi brass was available a few years ago.
    I bought 100 rounds for my sons M99.

    Think I bought Privi brass from Graf's about a year ago.

    Graf's has Privi Partizan Brass in stock right now. Dies are unavailable/out of stock every where I looked. Any 30 cal mold of 150-180 grains, i.e. 311-291, will get you where you want to go.

    I load for 303 savage.

    Some shortcuts are as follows

    Most 308 bullets will work just fine as well as 30 cal bullet molds.

    Also, a 30wcf bullet seating die in non crimp mode will seat bullets just fine.

    The lee factory crimp die for 30 cal works great.

    The 308 neck sizing die will work with your fireformed 303 cases. This was a tip that the lee customer service rep told me. However there is a small downside. It will only neck size partially (maybe halfway) down the neck of a 303 case. I have noticed no issues with this at all, but it looks unconventional. I still get 1moa with my neck sizes cases.

    So really the only thing that is a must buy for the 303 savage is a shell holder and a FL sizing die if you can find it.

    So you may want to 'WTB' some 308 stuff too.
