[QUOTE="7mmRHB, post: 361451, member: 3584"] There is a 7mm wildcat that I designed called the 284 STAK that is based on the 300 or 330 Dakota case. It is an IMP 40* with reduced body taper. 3200 plus with 180 Bergers. Works very well but still involves a fair amount of work and $ to do. My own 7mm wildcat is called the 7mm RHB and is a shortened RUM case ( 2.555 ) that I designed in 1999 when the RUM brass first became available . It has a 35* shoulder and less taper in the body also. It holds about 3 gr more powder than the 284 STAC and the performance level is about the same. This version is very difficult and expensive to pull off !!!This one is not for the faint of heart!! (or thin wallet) There are pictures and a bit of write up on LRH, probably on one of Goodgroupers threads so you could do a search . The 7mm Dakota is perfect for what you stated you are looking for!! Listen to Ernie, he knows what he's talking about!! --- RHB [/QUOTE]
