[QUOTE="Deleted member 25294, post: 1444632"] I re-barreled a 7 Rem mag to 6.5 SAUM and it's been a fantastic set up, I've shot two bulls with it already. a LA is great for the SAUM if you plan on shooting the 147's and up, plus as I'm sure you're aware your bolt face is compatible with the SAUM case making it a very easy conversion. My main reason for going the 6.5 route was to reduce recoil in a lightweight hunting package, my rifle is 5.8 lbs (7.2 scoped) and recoil is very light. Much lighter than when it was heavier and wore a 7 mag barrel. [/QUOTE]
