[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1116360, member: 30902"] The 7mm Rem isn't going anywhere in our lifetimes. Factory brass and ammo will always be available for them. The 7mm STW doesn't seem to be going anywhere either. It's death has been pronounced several times but it just keeps coming back. There are several consistent sources for factory ammo for the STW and as long as they are around you will always be able to get good factory ammo and brass. A lifetime supply of brass for any bolt gun is around 500-1000rds. If you aren't loading too hot you can easily get 3-6 loadings on each of them so when you get that many saved up you have nothing left to worry about. I've played with the 7's for a long time and the STW to me gives the maximum return. You can go with a bigger case to put more powder but you don't get much added velocity and pay for that little gain in velocity with significantly higher recoil and muzzle blast. With the advent of the 28 Nosler, if I ever change from the STW it will probably be to it. [/QUOTE]
