[QUOTE="Lee Owens, post: 22434, member: 73"] Len- Thank you for the information. From what you and others say, it sounds like Dakota brass is "hit or miss". The gun I will have built will be legal for 1kBR Heavy Gun. I would like to do some extreme-range target shooting as well. (Not hunting; I don't have the experience) I want something different. I want to try a LR 7mm and have it built to use LRB's solids. What do you think of a 7mm WSM? This is from a post on a thread called "7mm Ultra". This was originally posted by Speedbump: "I E-mailed back & forth a little with an illustrious member here - Warren Jensen. He has a 162 7mm (.788) that looks intriguing. He also was kind enough to crunch some numbers when asked regarding a theoretical 180 in his state-of-the-art contstruction. He estimates it would be near (gasp) .900 BC!!! It would need a 1:7" twist to stabilize it, but hmmmm........a .900 BC bullet leaving the muzzle at 3,300+ fps.... the possiblities.
