[QUOTE="Capt. D, post: 1007341, member: 10225"] Yes reloading is required for the 7LRM unless you want to buy $85.00 per box ammunition from gunwerks. I just had a 7LRM built by a smith other than gunwerks simply because thats who I wanted my rifle built by. We bought the reamer from gunwerks and they were there for the assist as needed as my smith had never built one in that caliber. (now has built several) You can get what is needed from gunwerks and can have a rifle built less expensive than gunwerks, but won't get the extra benefits that gunwerks provides such as load developement and ready out of the box. The brass and dies(other than custom) are only available from gunwerks at this point. Though I have not shot mine yet, because like everything else I'm running behind gathering components I am very satisfied with my choice of 7mm's and the LRM is designed for the 180 berger hybrid and will still maintain velocities around 3000 +-50fps. At 2950fps the 180 hybrid has the recommended kinetic energy to kill an elk out to about 925yds. While some will say that you shouldn't go past about 800yds with any 7mm, once load developement is complete and lots of trigger time at long range, I don't think that 1K would be out of the question.
