[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 1141876, member: 313"] Your option #1 would require you to partially size the neck of 300WSM brass while creating a false shoulder on the neck. This is necessary to create proper headspacing while the shoulders are being blown forward. It's a PIA if you ask me but some 7WSM shooters are happy to do it. It is a waste of barrel life IMO and is one less use of every case. And, that assumes that it works as expected on the first firing. It would also result in some case wall thinning but that may not be an issue. Who know? RSUAM seems like a much more sensible approach as long as the brass is available. You could buy enough brass up front for the life of the barrel and have nothing to worry about. How about this for an option - Chamber in 270 WSM? The bullets are a mere .007" smaller in diameter then the 7mm. Quality brass is readily available. The cartridge has a wide following and should be around for some time. Your rifle will shoot a wee it flatter. There, I think we've solved everything. :D [/QUOTE]
