[QUOTE="yorke-1, post: 1509804, member: 11960"] That's about right. I've seen a couple versions of it but they're all ballistically equal. The 7mm Dakota, 7mm LRM, 28 Nosler and the 7mm-8x68 improved will all be in the same ball park. The only hitch to the 8x68 case is the small rim diameter. Some .535" bolt faces will work but it depends on the extractor. I use the 8x68 case to form brass for a couple of 375 Ruger wildcats and it will extract 90% of the time on a Savage action with weak ejection, and it's about the same on a Ruger 77 Hawkeye action. I know that the small rim does work well on bolts with a Sako style extractor. [/QUOTE]
