[QUOTE="Deleted member 46119, post: 1385528"] Oh, that's a lot of questions. 7mm RM is a fine cardtridge. Fine accuracy. The 28-Nosler is "better" by being more accurate at the same effort level and faster. The added cost being new dies and brass? For me, it's worth it. Everything is chaning very quickly however, at the moment it seems to be about $500 for truing and barrel installation on a Remington 700 platform. Depending how how you handle this. Local or by mail. There are several smiths here that can do an excelent job for you, however, please let them tell you the price. A recap would be: Donor R700 - $0 Proof Barrel - $800 Smithing - $500 Dies - $100 Brass - $100 $1500. Not bad for a "custom" carbon barrel rifle. Everything else is a consumable that would be the same either way. [/QUOTE]
