[QUOTE="esshup, post: 327088, member: 11101"] Roy: You're pretty durn close! Here's a link to what the gun looks like. As it is in the picture, it weighs 14#. [URL]http://www.longrangehunting.com/forums/f17/175-gr-smk-7mm-allen-magnum-47204/[/URL] The bipod is a Harris 9"-13" notch leg swivel with swivel lock, and is included in the weight. I'd post a pic of the 7mmAM next to the 7mm Rem Mag, but I don't have a 7mm Rem Mag loaded round. I don't know what the capacity of the 7mmAM case is, but the .338 lapua case that it's based off of has a capacity of 115g water vs. 81g water for the 7mm Rem Mag. The 7mm AM has a greater case capacity than the .338 lapua. I believe a 175g bullet in the Rem Mag would go as quick as 2840 fps in a 28" barrelled gun where that same bullet in the 7mm AM is going 3470 fps. Just a wee bit quicker.:D But it really shines with the 200g Wildcat bullet. [/QUOTE]
