[QUOTE="dkhunt14, post: 1037573, member: 14053"] Brakes have nothing to do with it. A lot of guys are using 300 WSM with a 230 Berger and I guarantee they recoil harder then a 7 REM Mag does. A 20 round string plus sighters in a 20 minute or less and a 7Mag gets hot. The throat goes quick and you will be lucky to get 800 rounds of the accuracy needed to win. The 7 SAUM is a very accurate cartridge and barrels last a lot longer. Less powder and more accuracy. Some cartridges are just easier to get shooting and have bigger nodes where they will shoot great. The short fat cases like the 7SAUM and the 300 WSM are that way. Velocity doesn't win, accuracy does. It's just like in 1000 yard benchrest the big cases like the 6.5-300, 7-300 and the 30-378 Disappeared a long time ago. Even the 308 Baer and the 6.5-284 have disappeared. The short cases like the 6 Dasher and 300 WSM now dominate it. The groups have gotten so small that the aggregates they are shooting now is smaller then the best groups shot 10 years ago. Matt [/QUOTE]
