[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1780834, member: 30902"] In my opinion the Rum is just too much case for the bullet. There's a point where the deiminishing returns exceed that which is practical. No matter what you do with a 7mm Rum unless you load it down to STW/28 Nosler ballistics it's a barrel eating monster and rather unpleasant to shoot due to recoil and muzzle blast. Honestly if I were to build another 7mm of any kind other than the STW it would be a 28 Nos, 7 LRM, or one of the 7mm-.375 Ruger wild cats. I've got a STW closing in on 2000 rounds that still hasn't shown much throat erosion but I've seen Rum's burnt out in as little as 300 rounds. Of the Rum's the 300 Rum is probably the best performance and tolerability wise. [/QUOTE]
