Sorry for the deviation of topic.


That is a really low round count, did you use it for prairie dogs? I think I am averaging 2-2,500+ rounds for the 7 RM. I think the Weatherby and Mashburn are a better case design due to longer necks. If I did a Weatherby I would do a long throat but no free bore or the very minimum that would allow factory rounds to be shot.
