[QUOTE="DJ Fergus, post: 1737282, member: 93895"] Probably can't go wrong with any of them, just making sure your reamer for the saum or wsm has more freebore than a saami reamer if you are gonna shoot 175gr & up. Usually Most all saami reamers on a 7mm rm will work fine with 175& up cause the 7mm rem mag was originally designed back in 1962 for heavies, not the same longer low drag heavies we use today but never the less, 180s work fine. You will have ample room to seat long. Buy some nosler or adg 7mm rem mag brass, retumbo, 180s, 8.44 to 8.75 twist barrel and it won't be long until you are smiling. Ive got two of them. A factory unbraked sendero 9lbs and a Savage with a 26" proof cf & muzzle brake. 6lb 11oz. Both like 180 eldms @2860fps. Brass lasts forever. The savage kicks like my unbraked 7mm-08 x-bolt and has less muzzle jump. Very fun to shoot. [/QUOTE]
