A 7-08 with 180's,outclassses a 280AI and 162 ELD X's.

Unleash all of your STUPID at once and cite the bullets and glass.

7mm Weatherby throated how they should be is pretty impressive. I’m shooting 180 scenars, can kiss the lands and still have a repeater with 180eldm and scenars. Imr 8133 or RE26 are my preferred powders .

The biggest problem is brass. The quality of belted brass isn’t even on the same planet with what’s available for other cartridges these days.

I’d shoot the hell out of a 7 creedmoor, Bring it on!

Be fairly easy to neck and throat to 7mm in a creed.

Stick,
Do you own a 7 x 57 among your throng of .284 offerings? If so what is your preferred load outta it?

28 Nosler = 7 STW

7mm Practical and 7/300 Win are easier due to brass. Depending on Nosler to make brass is a really bad idea.

That’s exactly why it was so easy to do a Mashburn. Great brass everywhere.

I'm sort of partial to the 7 mils, finding them a good blend in velocity, BC,recoil and stuff falling over. Right now I've got the 7-08 in a Tikka that my daughter shoots, a 7 Rem in a Kimber Select-grade, a 7-300 Win in a Sako/Hart/ McMillan build, 4 STWs; two on M70s, a Cooper Western Classic and a Shilen/Gaillard/ McMillan. Last but not least a 28 Nosler in a Defiance/Carbon McMillan/ Frozen Fiber.

If I were starting over it would likely be 7-300. It seems to be right at the edge of the most powder that should be shoved down a .284 hole, brass is a given, and its a happy marriage with 3.600- 3.700 mag boxes. I can even keep a barrel alive for awhile.

Life begins at 40. Recoil begins at "Over 40" Coincidence? I don't think so.
