[QUOTE="Andrew Cowling, post: 2662889, member: 109547"] I keep getting asked why I copied wetherby witj my cartrges when 22 years ago I designed and built a 7mm, 308 and 338 AC MAGNUMS. All of these are a rebated rim 3006 bolt face. I used 300 win mag brass and turned the belt off and Rims down and pushed the shoulder back to give a longer neck. I did devolpe the 6.5mm version but it was a bit of a barrel burner and gave up nothing to the 264 remington magnum so I droped it. Designed as a intermediate to long action the 7mm can easily be chambered in a 7mm mauser with no other changes. The 308 ACMagnum has been the most popular in that any 3006 can be rechamvered to it with no other changes required. These rebated precision magnums are nothing new. [/QUOTE]
