So, you mean the 7mm Express was loaded like a 270W?..... grin

Precisely. That's the whole reason they renamed it and reintroduced it -- so it would be loaded for bolt action rifles at the .270 et al level, rather than being held down for the 740's and 760's...even though the same pump and semiauto rifles were chambered for the .270 and .30-'06 cartridges loaded to higher pressures than the original .280's.

So tell me how I'll receive my prize... grin?
