[QUOTE="Ckleeves, post: 2610113, member: 83259"] There are thousands and thousands of 6.5 PRC shooters that have never heard of the 6.5 Saum, just like there will be thousands of 7 PRC shooters that have never heard of the 7 saum or any of the wildcats. Just how it works. I like the 6.5 saum but when my current barrel is done I have a 6.5 prc barrel already sitting in the safe to replace it. At this point it’s the easy button. If/when Lapua and ADG pick up the 7PRC it’s gonna be another nail in the 7 saum/wsm/whatever coffin. It’s a shame I would love a 7 wsm but I’m not going down that road with the brass situation for it. 7saum is a great cartridge but brass has been hard to find and when it does pop up it’s sells out as fast as a 250 count box of Berger 215’s! And you pretty much have one manufacture for it so better hope nothing happens to them or they stop making it (doubtful either happens, just saying) [/QUOTE]
