[QUOTE="cdherman, post: 1657999, member: 12282"] No first hand knowledge, but lots of collateral damage. I had a 7 SAUM on a SA Savage action that would never quite shoot right. Throated to put the 180 Berger at max magazine length. Shilen. Shootng right for me, would have been consistently under .5 MOA. Just could not get there. Swore I'd never build another magnum cartridge on a SA. In the meantime, the action became a 6.5 Creed. Dumb choice, but it does shoot very well. Also have a 7 RM with a Proof carbon fiber barrel shooting the 195 EOL. Getting good velocity and accuracy. Groups always under 1 MOA, and have only 100 rds down barrel thus far. Some groups as small as 5 into .3 MOA. Velocity was decent, but I've not shot since last December. Major other stuff in life..... The 7 SAUM case is not as capacious as the larger 7s. You may have trouble getting adequate velocity out of the 195. Even if you have it throated long (and you have correct twist of course.....) People say the same thing about the 7 RM too -- too small, has belt etc... Good luck.... [/QUOTE]
