[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 192024, member: 2736"] The big advantage of the 7RUM over the 7STW is with heaver bullets. If you intend to shoot 140gr bullets the STW will get within 100 ft/sec of the 7RUM but on 175gr bullets the RUM will have over 200 ft/sec more velocity than the STW. I like and own both the STW and the RUM and they each have there strong points. My best load in the 7STW is a 140 Nozler partition @ 3450 ft/sec. My best load in the 7RUM is a 160 accubond @ 3394 ft/sec. I dont find the belt a problem so belt or beltless does not matter to me. The 7RUM has a 12% energy advantage over the 7STW and 24% over the 7Rem Mag with a 140gr bullet and the wildcats blown out with a 40o shoulder add more case capacity to shoot the realy big 7mm bullets (Like the 190gr). I hope this helped J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
