Rechamber Dilema Which Caliber??

[Browning300]

if your leaning towards the 7s either 28nosler or 7wsm. if 30cal then 30nosler would be a good option. if your looking for something a bit different a 270wsm or 27nosler with a 1in8" twist to shoot the 170gr bergers would be interesting.

Advice I guess, glad I asked. I wouldn't have looked into half of what I am if I hadn't asked here and elsewhere.

The 7SS is working out really nice! You can get nearly 3100' with a max load 180 and I have reached 3000 with 195's. You can tone it down to 140's or less if you want. The case life at a couple grains below max is phenomenal. They are super accurate and not finicky to load. Brass is available or you can make your own with a little guidance, which I give freely. Reamers and dies are ready to ship........Rich

71 grains. Far more efficient than either of the 2 you mentioned and cycles the long bullets thru a short action without taking up your case capacity. It is like a 6br on steroids........Rich

Actually, the 6.5 is 71 grs. so the 7 would be about 72 with the larger neck.....Rich

Thanks!! Looking through your old threads on this.

I see, depends on your definition of "Far more Efficient" I guess.
