[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 2587294, member: 48043"] I feel the same about the 7rum over the 28... My 7rum barrel started as a 28 nos with just over 150 rounds through it. The throat was already beat up enough that my 'smith had to cut nearly 2" off the shank (lucky it was a long shank tube to start with) to get the reamer to index well enough to cut the chamber. I'll loaf my 7rum and get 2900 fps with a 175 eld-x at 1/2 moa. I suppose I could step up to the plate at 3200 fps but why? My brother ran the pipe in 28 nos and it liked to blow up bullets. It'll do it with harsh stuff in 7rum too. I guess an 8" twist Brux isn't one to hotrod with a thin-skinned pill. The 8" twist Shilen on my 7stw is easier on pills to be sure. [/QUOTE]
