[QUOTE="bushwackr, post: 1017710, member: 77802"] I'm trying to prepare early, our local smith is really backed up and I may have to start now to get it in time .I have a chance to pickup a 7 rum, I was thinking of rechambering to a 300 rum, or a 338 edge. I am not sure if I will even need to do that. If things work im my favor I may have an opportunity to hunt montana elk next season. Does anyone use a 7 rum, I would use the 180 bergers , or a large barnes tsx. Is there a need to change the rifle. I am told by that the guys there 400 and longer shots are possible if the shooter can do it. I'm sure that 180 would hit like a hammer but I have little trigger time on any 7mm so i'm not sure. I would more than likely need to rebarrel to get 1:9 twist Would I be better with a 300, or 338? I appreciate the info. Thanks all [/QUOTE]
