[QUOTE="Limbic, post: 570245, member: 11905"] Edge is a RUM necked up so the powder burning should be about the same. the bullets are more expensive so you are right about that. I shot a 7RM and 180vld's for a year or so. 68g of retumbo consistently gave me 2950ish fps. I think that the barrel was stress a fair bit with that heavy load. By stressed I mean my lands wore away faster than I would have liked. I don't know how much you believe in the "overbore debate" but I would think a 300wm would give you better barrel life and everybit the killing power that the 7rm would. Were you going to shoot moose with a berger? [/QUOTE]
