[QUOTE="Jud96, post: 1016234, member: 69478"] Okay, I have about 4lbs of 7828ssc and 2lbs of plain old 7828. One thing I am considering is if I already have components for the cartridge. I have all of that 7828 and I can regularly find it at all of my local shops so that will probably determine what shell I choose. I also have 6lbs of IMR 4831, but this is a little fast for the bigger magnums. I am thinking about the Norma still, but if I can find a Remington Long Range in '06, I would have to buy a bolt with a magnum bolt face because I don't want to go through the process of opening up a 700 bolt face. That would add another few hundred bucks to my project, by then I could have built a custom off a 700 donor. Maybe a .300 RUM? It has enough of an advantage over the Norma, but it is a little over kill and not very efficient. [/QUOTE]
