[QUOTE="Tumbleweed, post: 568470, member: 9281"] This may not be what you are wanting to know but, just yesterday I talked with our local taxidermist and the original wilcatter of the 7mmSTW who told me a little about the "original" design he came up with before the writer from Shooting Times Westerner stole his idea. His 7mm runs a shallower rifling (how much I don't know) and he has 1" of no rifling out of the throat. He runs 175 Gamekings to 3300fps and has safely had them running to 3600fps. He dropped it back down to 3300 to track with his scope. He said he is better than .5 MOA. B.S.? I don't think, so, he's a straight shooter (no point intended) [/QUOTE]
