[QUOTE="NEPUT17, post: 720779, member: 57585"] Guys, ****, Im happy to see such quick feedback and great advice, its much appreciated. Ive considered necking down .300 SAUM Nosler brass, but heard that Remington stuff is good also if you sort and turn necks, which I would be more willing to do then necking down brass. Guess it just depends on what I can find to begin with. The load data supplied is a great place to start, and I appreciate it. I also liked the melonite "coating" article, since Im trying like hell to get the max velocity from a 26" pipe. I see all of you guys are running the SA's, can you load 180's long and still mag seat them? Is that the reason for the Berger hybrids, or are you just a fan of the round? I guess the way I look at it right now, I'll put up with the extra 3/4" or so on action length to have more options in the future, in load length, and rechambering if necessary. That said, Im open to any info any disadvantages to the long actions. Im basing some of my decision on prior experiences with the M24 system, and its "upgradability" to .300 WinMag. Ive always heard the rumors of action rigidity compromised with LA's and repeaters, but I call BS, and if there is minimal accuracy loss, I think its a worthwhile trade on both issues...again, Im always learning, so feel free to fill me in. 7Mag...can't argue with results, it's also a great round, but always heard that it has more felt recoil, if all other things are equal (bullet weight, velocity etc). Im trying to get that performance with minimal recoil, to avoid recoil tolerance issues while training. And isn't 7mmMag belted? Thanks guys, loads of great info here, excited to have finally got on this forum! [/QUOTE]
