[QUOTE="Varberger757, post: 851707, member: 66992"] This thread should be hopefully an inspiration for the big community of 7mm enthusiasts on this site. Personally, I do have a long experience with the European 284s like the 7 x 57 and 7 x 64 (65R), great rounds. I always wanted a 7 RM badly and still do, but since I’m on this site and reading about the 7 STW on almost daily basis, I’m going to be addicted… :) Especially, because the round is quite unknown over here. The same must be surely the case with the [B]7 x 66 Super Express vom Hofe[/B] in the USA. The 7 x 66 SE v H is a beltless magnum and was invented in 1955 by Walter Gehmann. [URL]http://www.gehmann.com[/URL] The “mothercase” is the .404 Jeffrey. It’s a cartridge constructed for the purpose of long-range hunting and a very potent round.The 7 x 66 SE v H is also no common product in Europe either which makes this round extremely exciting. If requested the interested shooter will find companies like Horneber who delivers ready brass and fab – ammo can be bought at WR (Wolfgang Romey) with Woodleigh bullets. Over here in Europe, it’s no issue to get a chamber reamed for this particular calibre, and surely not in the USA either. Any kind of Mauser action or its relatives like Rem 700, Win, etc. will fit perfectly. The performance of the 7 x 66 SE v H is told to be between the 7 RM and 7 STW. I doubt that and mean that it could close up to the 7 STW with the right hand loads. Since there are so many highly experienced guys in reloading on LRH’s site, I thought they might get it done and push the 7 x 66 SE to its limits. I’m thinking f. ex. about the use of slow burning powders in combination with bullets like the Bergers and Accubonds etc. [FONT="]I’m looking forward to a nice and exciting discussion, and hope that I could contribute something interesting to this great forum.
