[QUOTE="ntsqd, post: 1706534, member: 93138"] I don't consider myself a BR or ELR class reloader, yet, but yeah been on and off pulling a Rockchucker handle for about 30 years. I don't yet know if she's going to want to try it yet. This thread is about doing the prelim research to figure out the direction to take. 7-08 has been the intended chambering by default, but I got to wondering why not a 6.5 or smaller bore? With our range's notorious cross wind it couldn't hurt to have something that needs less doping. I built a 6.5 CM upper so I do have dies for that caliber. Point is to consider going with a smaller bore than 7mm, would prefer a short action, and the shooter is small in stature. Neither of those calibers really fit the desired result. [/QUOTE]
