No not yet, been playing with the "Houston warehouse" saum
21 3/4 inch barrel, 1.3 inch dia at the muzzle :)
Shooting very well :)
And still using the standard model 7 in saum
Any further ideas for a forum wildcat ?
Yes standard 243 what more could you want[emoji1]Quote:

Now thats just silly.
lets neck a 7-08 up to 30cal and call it good?
What about a 303 necked down to 30 cal?
All those lee Enfield could have a second life!
Been done as well as plenty of other bore sizes, custom on a weak very old action just doesnt make sense.Quote:

sounds like something that might fix the only issue i have with the 7-08, mag length...
Yes that will work
and what cunning plan do you have for a seating die ? :D
With lapua brass and 120g ballistic tips it might be a 3000fps capable chambering

Has anyone actually done anything about this and got one done?
Lyman make a 7mm universal seating die, as do a couple of other companiesQuote:

There have been some work on the 6.5x47 necked up to 7 mm and your wild cat will be very close to a 6.5 creedmoor necked up to 7mm.
I can post a picture with an a-max if you want. So you can dream about it tonight :-)

Well, a Forum Elite Hunter cartridge that can be a little different but still practical might be a 6XC necked up to 6.5mm, 6.8mm or 7mm.
Easy brass to find and form if need be, can ai it if that spins yer wheels
7saum and 6XC

22-250 and 6XC

Different but still practical ??
Plenty of good 6XC brass around now.
Anyone contemplating or using a 7x47 yet ?
A 6.5 xc is so close to 6.5 creedmoor, it ain't funny .
well,its taken you blokes four years, but I have come up with the answer myself

Do I even need to look at the numbers to work outs it's a 270!!Quote:

When you analyse the .270 calibre in detail you come across an interesting factQuote:

So a .270 is closer to 7mm than what a 7mm is
Not sure what my point is :)
Your point is that everyone who says "7mm is the best, bla bla bla bla" is making a fool of themselves whilst at the same time being absolutely correctQuote:
