[QUOTE="Balance1m, post: 560740, member: 23045"] This is the same discussion on 24HourCampFire [url=http://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/topics/5717305/Re_264_Win_Mag_vs_7Rem_mag#Post5717305].264Win vs 7Rem mag? - 24hourcampfire[/url] [COLOR="Blue"]John Burns who sells both calibers in his custom rifles said: "When used with the best loads and proper throat geometry the .264 Win has a slight advantage in reach and the 7mm Rem is more forgiving of a lack of maintenance. Tough to call a winner unless you are stuck with factory ammo and then it is not even close. Advantage 7mm Rem. In factory barrels the 7mm Rem will have a significant barrel life advantage as the SAMMI 264 Win throat is not conducive to long life." _________________________ John Burns Greybull Precision LLC[/COLOR] Can anyone comment on the throat geometry he alludes to? he also mentions there is more maintenance with the 264. I guess carbon removal is paramount to better accuracy and barrel life. [/QUOTE]
