[QUOTE="TMR, post: 576742, member: 5819"] A 7RM will work fine as long as its setup properly. Most are setup with short throats and it hampers performance. Set them up for 180's to still fit in the factory mag, and wonderful things happen. 3050-3100 with 180's in 26"-28" barrels is achieveable without ruining cases. The STW is nice, but I was changing barrels every year, sometimes 2x in a year. Granted, I was pushing things a little, but barrels lasted around 1000-1200 rounds and they were done. I build ALOT of 7 Mags for guys and it seems to work out well for them. I wouldn't hesitate using mine on elk out to 800 at all. Past that, my Edge comes out. [/QUOTE]
