[QUOTE="trucraft, post: 1478598, member: 67624"] I am of the feeling that to compensate for barrel length you need a little more powder. I have a 7saum with 25" barrel but will never go that long again. i am planning a 6.5 saum and will probably have a 20 - 22" barrel. Every time i mention a short barrel magnum I hear people tut but I don't think I'll ever own a barrel longer than 22" I think for the even shorter 7mm barrel and closer range work i'd use a slightly smaller case so the 7-08 or 284 cases look to be the ticket with something around 150grn bullet.
