Rifles in .325 WSM

Who (which companies) are producing rifles in the new .325 WSM? Anybody have some manufacturers that they are sure are currently making these or who have published promises to manufacture them?

Currently it is Winchester/Browning

I also read recently that Savage will begin production in the future.

Kimber is producing rifles for the 325 but I'm not sure if they're shipping yet. Checck out their web site.

8mm,
I have curently here in Montana seen rifles in Winchester the Super shadow,Browning Micro hunter and A-bolt,and Kimber Classic and Montanan.
My bro-in-law just bought his girl freind a Kimber MT in .325 wsm.So they are slowly trickleing in.
Savage is supposed to chamber it,along with ruger and Howa,I'm sure Tikka will also.Check some web sites and see what manufactures are chambering and whos not.
Like I said I have seen only 3 this year so far,I'm waiting for the Winchester Classic Sporter III wich will be out in Sept. I was told.

Thanks to all for the responses.
I'm looking down the line for future reference and will likely try to snap up a used rifle in this chambering in a few years. I would prefer a rifle with controlled round feed, (not cause I know them to be better but just that I'm quite comfortable with it since I own so many Mausers), and would also prefer a 3 position swing safety...that leaves out the Browning, and I don't know about the Kimbers...but I suspect they're too rich for my blood anyway.Savage wouldn't give me the right safety.....It looks like I'll be shopping for used Winchesters.
Thanks again....and I'll keep my eyes peeled on the manufacturers websites.
