[QUOTE=".300 Dakota, post: 2558677, member: 106514"] I think what he's getting at is that we already had those around in the 7 WSM, 7 SAUM and the Sherman shorts. While the 7 SAUM definitely wasn't throated where it needed to be, custom builders have no problem throating anything to proper depth. Also, how much performance do you gain over the 6.5 PRC, 6.5 SAUM, and 7mm SAUM, and 7 Sherman shorts? If it is indeed ONLY 7 Rem Mag size, then it's likely to be not enough different from that or the 7 Wby in performance and the same argument holds. However, it it's fatter and has a longer neck than the 7 Rem Mag, and has a capacity in the upper 80s to low 90s grains of water, that puts it near the STW and 28 Nosler in performance level while shaving some recoil and blast, while adding some barrel life. The only way a short cartridge in this design is beneficial over things already available, is if it's fat enough to hold at least 83 - 85 grains of water. That means it would need to be nearly Lapua-sized except way shorter. [/QUOTE]
