Good catches BobinNH, but I could not resist... Yeah, I am originally from Tidewater, and we consider ourselves southern, since we were occupied by the Yankees for awhile (eg Fort Monroe), and my namesake served in the Surry Light Artillery... but Northern Virginia where I live now sure has a bunch of Yankee sympathizers runnin' around... When you go into the local gun shops and mention 7mm, if it ain't the 7mm Remington Magnum, or 7mm Weatherby, their eyes will glaze over... i dare not mention 7mm Mashburn Super...

Dogger, I don't blame you....LOL! I been to Virginia and rural Tennessee...as well as Georgia and rural Florida....now that's the South! But I know you'd treat me to Southern hospitality if I showed up in Northern Virginia....even if I am a damned Yankee (which is what they called me first night in Tennessee). I even got invited back! In truth, there are lottsa good 7mm's today.

7mm rem mag.... Years of "been there and done that" experience come with it, not to mention the plethora of loads be it factory, reloads, match, hunting, or reduced.
Can't 'member who said this saying, 'The 7mm rem mag is what the 06' wishes it was and what the 270 dreams to be'.
I agree

Short action, I'd be all over the 7 WSM, long action slamo dunk for me it'd be the Mashburn Super. Anutha take via Flight 7 MSM... Dober

I agree Me, too...30-40 years with the cartridge tells me it's a good one all right. But if I could do it all over, it would be the Mashburn.Just does the same things,and more,easier and more consistently, rifle to rifle.Everyone who has tried it, says the same thing.

Dober I know this has been asked before but what's the difference between the mashburn and a 7mm/300win? Bob can chime in here as I haven't paid much attn to it but I think that the Mashburn has a longer neck and a bit more case capacity. And of course, the gun loony's down fall a truck load of Panache... Dober

Dober Agree, except that I'd probably just roll with the 7RM in a long action. Both the WSM and the RM perform about identically, and easily do all that I need. If I just wanted a project that I could screw around with, and bewilder the local resident hunters with, then I would consider building a Mash The fact that it's called a 7MSM would be the reason, though, not because of the subtle increase in performance over the WSM or RM.
