[QUOTE="budlight, post: 36371, member: 2939"] I am the proud owner of a 28 inch target barreled 7mm wildcat STW. The standard production shells fire form to fit my slightly larger case dimensions. I bought it from someone who had it built to compete in 1000 yard competitions. He was never satisfied with the results. He told me that the .30’s and .338’s would always be a better choice. So he sold it to me and moved up to the 50BMG with a 42 inch barrel. It’s just an excellent gun. I use 175 SPBT’s and run them in my media tumbler to moly coat all the bullets it gives them a needle point for maybe a slightly better BC. I have done very well in 600 yard meets. I have not bought any of the 180’s referred to by the other poster. I mainly use mine for hunting these days. 5.5 X 22 nightforce scope. [/QUOTE]
