Seems to be coming together nicely. Too bad BT's can't kill anything.  ![[Linked Image]](http://i595.photobucket.com/albums/tt32/Rancho_Loco/93dd3489.jpg)
I replace valve cover gaskets every 50K, if they don't need them sooner...

You gotta do the scope swaparoo. Dots on that thing would be sweet.

Those 150 BT's are magic bullets to go with your magic powder. 60 grs of Ramshot Hunter aint bad either. They really carry well way out there. I have the ss/syn mdl in 7shamu. Resized a hundred cases just a couple hours ago, there in the tumbler right now.
If your willing to burn primers on a cartridge you must really like it right.

Sweet, I really like the dashes on that scope. Little sharper than the Leupold dots.

154 Horny Interlocks are shooting nice out of it, too. I might load a chitload up with both and be good until next year.

Rancho- I really dig the 7SAUM. Mine dearly loves the Accubombs but I'm thinking about giving the 130gr Northforks a whirl. That is if my loan is approved for them.

The Model 7 laminated in 7mm SAUM is a good looking rifle, with nice balance. I like the factory sights on it, too. I saw one on the rack marked down to $479.00....
RL-17 should be the powder to try in that.

I like my 7 SAUM as well. It'll fling 140 Partitions at 3150 with 60.0 gr H 4350 into an inch. Mine also liked 61.0 Hunter under the same bullet. I had really low ES with H 4350 - something on the order of 7-10 ft/sec for 3-4 groups.
Thinking of trying 160 AB in it for elks and deers. Am thinking 2950 is very doable in my 24" barrel.
I can dig the 7 SAUM...............
Adversity doesn't build character, it reveals it.
