[QUOTE="Deleted member 25294, post: 1363764"] Wow I see my old post got resurrected.. I ended up going with the 6.5 Saum on a tikka action, and I could not be happier. One major reason for wanting to go with the Saum over the wsm was recoil, and the 6.5 is much lighter on recoil with the 147's @3050fps than the 270wsm was with 150's. For brass I'm running norma 7mm Saum cases through a hornady 6.5 gap die, neck turning and shooting. Very simple to form, I've loaded some test cases 8 times and the primer pockets are still tight. I love the 6.5 Saum, I killed two bull elk with it this year, it's my go to rifle now for all occasions, and it's really light. [/QUOTE]
