[QUOTE="RBetts, post: 341814, member: 22077"] You will have more room to move the bullet out toward the lands with the STW. This is needed as the throat gets scorched by the amount of powder used by both of these. The 7rem will carry 1000#s out to 1000yds The STW to 1100yds and the RUM to 1150. 1000# of energy is at the very bottom of where the 180 Berger can be relied on every time. It will work at less energy but your on the brink of disaster. The throat life difference from a 7rem mag and a 7rum or stw is measured in multi hundreds of rounds. A brake on a 7 rem is a nice touch but not required. Lay down behind either a stw or rum on an uphill shot without a good brake. Make sure you bring a needle and thread and some ambesol to stitch yourself up. [/QUOTE]
