[QUOTE="cross, post: 203321, member: 8592"] [b]7mm/300 Winchester[/b] No, it's not a 7mm Remington Magnum. I have one of those and have been investigating getting mine bored out to a 7mm/300 Winchester (7mm-300 Winchester). BTW, a 7mm/300 Winchester is pretty close to the original (or at least the most famous of the originals) called 7mm Mashburn Super Magnum which was made famous by Warren Page. (If I don't have the Mashburn Super Magnum part right feel free to correct me, there were several 7mm Mashburns and I may have my facts mixed up). My opinion is that a 7mm/300 Winchester would be a fantastic cartridge that would come close to splitting the difference between a 7mm Rem Mag and a 7mm STW capacity wise and would provide velocities closer to an STW than the standard 7mm Rem. It would also allow the case capacity to be expanded while keeping the OALs short enough to allow bullets to be seated to the correct length in a standard model 700 magazine box and provide access to all of that wonderful match grade 300 Winchester magnum brass. If anyone knows a gunsmith that has a reamer for this and/or can provide me with more information on where to get dies for one of these it would be greatly appreciated. [/QUOTE]
