I'm in the process of having a custom rifle built and I am seriously considering the 7mm SAUM, but if its velocity capabilities are not up to my desires, I may consider the larger 7mm WSM or perhaps something entirely different.
The custom action I am using is extremely tight and durable so I should be able to push the pressure a little more (using high quality brass) than the average factory rifle ... but not much.
The action is also long enough to load the rounds to full practical length for maximum case capacity.
Anyway, with a 26" barrel, what could I expect with 140gr & 160gr bullets using the SAUM ?
