[QUOTE="LewisH, post: 263464, member: 8507"] I chose the 7 STW because it is (1) 7mm for the high bc and sectional density of the heavier .284 bullets (like 180gr Bergers). (2) Reputation for excellent accuracy. (3) A step up in power from the venerable 7 Rem. Mag., or the new 7 WSM. Yes, it's overbore (inefficient), but not as bad as the RUM; and is reported to be less finicky to load for. If I hankered for an even more powerful 7mm, I'd skip the RUM and go straight to the 7 Allen Magnum, which enjoys an outstanding reputation, and is formed from the very strong 338 Lapua brass (much stronger than Remington brass).
