The 28N hits a perfect balance for the most powder you can burn in 26" relatively efficiently. The longer the barrels between the two, the more the RUM wins. At 26" they are very close. At 28 not so much. At 30 the rum is walking away.For those that have any info, I'd be interested too. I've been thinking of a 28N or 7RUM.
I keep hearing that the performance is very similar, but this is going to be a rifle I don't mind running as a single shot. If you take COAL restrictions out of the equation and assume that both are throated properly does that still hold true? Seems like if they were both loaded long and throated properly the 7RUM would have a distinct advantage as it has about 8grns additional capacity (h2o)
I'd be looking at the 180gr-198gr bullets myself
If anyone is interested in a Sendero 2 7RUM, my brother has one he is willing to part with. I'd say round count around 100. No need for it and no where to shoot it for it's potential here in MS.
Had one in a Sendero I really regret letting go of. If you need a set of reload dies let me know.
