Best 7mm out there now

[bfarms]

How do they compare to the 7 RUM ? Similar speeds without cooking a barrel in 1000 rounds?

Faster. Can't tell you on barrel life. ( I'm
Sure it is limited) but so far mines still shooting and I've never been worried about it. I'll order another barrel and keep shooting. Mines running 3400fps with 180s and could be ran harder if I wanted. Don't know how the other 7/300nmi work because this was a custom reamer design.

I've been out of the game since before my wife passed away. So now I'm wanting to get me a varmint rifle, since I have my .375 Ruger for deer and such

Have they made a .284-378 yet? Lol

With a fast twist barrel…..the old 7 STW would be a pretty good cartridge ! memtb

7 SAUM !!! Hands Down !!!

Using "My Best" Criteria:

One of the Most Efficient per grain of powder.
Superbly Accurate !!!
It's an over achiever, well designed case, no improvements needed, easy to load for, easy to shoot. accurate, long barrel life, versatile, can run in short, medium, & long actions, works well in short & long barrels, Suppressed or non, good fit in lightweight or heavy rifle platforms,
Runs light or Heavy bullets, runs well with a lot of different powders & primers,
Quality ADG Headstamped brass,
easy for the average handloader to support & run,
Some custom loaded ammo sources.
It's a No fuss Non-Wildcat, Non-Improved 7mm,

& something you can shoot ALOT.
= BEST !!!

I'm going with 7 STW because I have 2 of them lol.

 

[WapitiBob]

7STW, 195's and N570, 3140

6 ea at 600 and 1000

 

[lancetkenyon]

28 Nosler. This is 3 shots yesterday @ 100yds. 195 @ 3101fps. Not a max load.

 

[Catskills]

I'm a STW fan and love the 7mm08, but if I were starting over, Id get a fast twist 7mm Rem Mag or a 280AI.

 

[Trm82]

Put me down for 7 saum !!
My favourite used to be 28 nosler but is now 7 saum.

175 elites 3 shots at 825 yards last week and it was windy.

After watching, a 7 PRC, 24" Proof, Tikka action recently, with 180's clocking at, 2,980 to 3,000 FPS and into, Smallish, .311 Ctr to Ctr Groups, I'm,. SOLD !
Very manageable barrel Jump and recoil with, the PVA, 3 Port, Jet Blast Brake !

My Brother and I are doing the same thing with the std 7 Mag with .210 freebore.

Two loads, 26", 9T, #5 contours, Brux and Krieger 4G, a third in an X Caliber barrel-6G


A. R#22 shoots a single bullet hole with R#22 at 2860

B. R#26 shoots sub 3/8" with Fed 215's, 3030 fps

Remington Brass, non-trued 700s, Boyd's stocks, Gentry muzzle breaks, Burris signature 6x24 with the light seeker front objectiveDies are Forster bullet seater and FL sizer, while I found the best accuracy with a '79 RCBS full-length sizer....go figure. We full-length size every firing. Beater rifles are not supposed to shoot this well, but they do.

I don't think a guy could go wrong with a 7 PRC or 7 Rem mag as they have almost identical case capacity.

The 7 Rem mag will feed flawlessly in the Mark 5, I don't know about the PRC.

28 Nosler is equal to the 7 STW in case capacity, or darn close to it. 28 Nosler cases(AGD), anyone making 7 STW Brass?

7/300 Norma mag improved is the king of 7s

^ There it is.

Have a couple. Can confirm. They are simply the apex of the pyramid. Everything else is just a poser.

Start with Lapua 300 norma brass, form it, and enter 7mm bliss.

I've been out of the game since before my wife passed away.

I am heartily sorry for your loss. I am glad you are re-engaging with your passion.

So now I'm wanting to get me a varmint rifle,

How far are you going to shoot?

Your live stream stopped the other day…youtube sensor it?

Which smith has a 7/300 Norma you recommend?

 

[Rick Richard]

My all time favorite was the 7 LRM, however due to poor brass and availability it died a slow death. Then came the big marketing machine Hornady and the birth of the 7 PRC...not my choice though.

 

[horsefor4]

Had everyone got behind the 7wsm it would do the same thing as th PRC the smallest 1000 yard group was shot with a 7 wsm and Winchester brass.
