I do not have any of the 3, but I support anything that keeps things around and available. It's near impossible to find 35remington so I can feel the pain here with anyone struggling to find ammo or components of something they like to shoot.
Gday
Keep up on this line @HuntnPack as you sir are doing us all proud even though I don't own any of the saum family it's the way you are doing it that shows us the way forward & big picture which I tip my hat to you
Here's my 2 cents or rant on what's not only gone on here but many other threads
So here goes & apologies in advance if it's not welcome but I'm passionate on what I love so hope that makes sense on the following . & comes through that way
I can't empathise enough of how I'm seeing so much division between some with whatever agenda one has or their love for conflict that is ultimately dividing us as a group
Example copper vrs lead to personal ways one hunts & one chambering vrs another the list goes on
When we get that we splinter as a group & I'll take this saum as a example
If it does become even harder to source we will loose a certain amount of people to our sport & even if it's one it's to many
Now it's easy to say oh just go rebarrel to another chambering yes to some but that's not thinking about ALL of US !!! As a group as I've seen too many lost to the sport from exactly these type of things playing out so they get rid of the firearms & move to fishing or whatever that flows on most times to their kid's & next generation is ultimately gone
As if you add up the cost of a barrel rechamber new dies etc the cost to that person of a minimum of a thousand $ aussie they just can't justify the expense which I accept as that's their priority
Now that person lost might only buy a pkt of bullets / brass a year but it's gone & eventually the rot starts & eventually our pool shrinks & so on
Also a headstamp of the correct chambering lessons the risk of a new to the sport mixing up bullets or a muppet like me eg 7-08 brass was hard to source here for a while & easy to use 308 cases but what happens when you have a 7-08&308 & someone grabs a308 by mistake you've got a potential time bomb if it's headstamp is correct & stick to that it's one cross reference that helps stop it from occurring .
Wont stop it 100% but man it's a great visual that's why I've never mixed brass of different headstamp s& touch wood I've never had a bad outcome but I know of a few that have now & lucky no one has died or serious injuries
So I don't care who shoots what we are all one in my book just sick & tired of the division that seems to exist around here compared to my home forum but I'd love the day the band together could be seen here
but I also understand some people just seem grumpy whatever is put up
For you Americans Bertrum brass does 7&300 saum just don't know if the importer brings them in
& it may not be upto one's standard for whatever reason the dislike of Bertrum but for me I'm proud of a aussie who provides a lot of nearly lost chamberings & that keeps so many in the industry & another great Aussie that was not coming back after their factory fire was woodleigh bullets but Geoff through the overwhelming requests like on this thread has started business again & us as a group have a bigger pool of availability & one that keeps more of us interested in our sport & those campfire discussions going & I love campfires
Hope that all makes sense & please let's band together not divide
Probably 50 cents worth now lol from this side of the ditch & I hope the saum lives on
Keep plugging away guys
For most part this has been a awesome thread
Cheers

A couple things need to Happen.
Supply & Demand. Each Drives the other.
Also people need to know what the SAUM is & how it performs to consider it as an option for their use.
Part of that consideration is going to be able to get components readily.
More people using the SAUM's could help by promoting why & how they like it & how well they perform.
My interest in starting this thread is to show interest & show Manufacturing that there is Demand.
Also to raise awareness that we need to be vocal.
Thank you.

7mm and 300 SAUM fan here. I'd like to see 300 SAUM head stamped brass available from ADG and/or Peterson. I e-mailed ADG a while back and asked if they had any plans to produce 300 SAUM brass, I have since deleted that e-mail, but they basically replied no, not at this time.
