Thread: Big Sevens... Which one for the 195 Berger.....?

So after a lengthy discussion with my smith and another owner of a 7-300NM (and plenty of encouraging from all of you) I will go with the original concept of a 7-300 Norma.

Rem 700 Action
25.5" Bartlein fluted Barrel, T2 brake
Brass Norma 100X
Bergers on back order unless I can convince @Kiwi Greg to give me one of his boxes that are squirreled away somewhere...
Stock.... work in progress but hoping Sendero / HS


Will post updates on loads and pics when complete...and the load dev story.

Thanks for the constructive input

No having accuracy issues at the moment.

Not the sort of calibre you want to have accuracy problems to sort out...I feel your pain
Hopefully you sort it before the barrel is burnt out😉
