    This is my 300saum, it's had the bolt and barrel fluted and trigger set to 2.5lb by Robbie at gunworks and trued up when it was put back together, limbsaver, bedded in laminate stock and has a MAE muzzle forward can on it.

    @223nut I'm a leftie, I do everything left handed except shoot, my dad obviously saw I was gonna have trouble finding rifles when I was older so he made me shoot right handed from day one and now it's natural and feels strange to shoot left handed.

    Did Theo tell you I dropped some meat in for him?

    Does the model 7 in saum have any trouble with Cartridge OAL?
    Yep Dad did say you had dropped some off, tasted good he said.

    I seat 140 accubonds to mag length for my spook and shoot load. But I seat 162 amax longer than mag length for my longrange load and single feed them.

    I think I may have to try seating longer than mag length.

    I run the 162 amax at 2.965 which is just touch in my 7Saum mod 7. 67.5gr of 2217 gives 2990fps from factory 22" barrel.

    This is my latest model 7. Latest version in 223 Rem that I got off @Dreamer.



    Fitted up a Vortex diamondback 4-12 x40, had the trigger lightened nicely.

    Loaded up a few rounds to test. I'm thinking it likes these....


    3 @100

    and @ 300


    The 55 SGK is doing just shy of 3100 from the 18" barrel.

    Now to load up a bunch of them and go splatter some critters. 

    I have 300Saum Norma necked down, but a few Rem 7mmsaum brass I could try. I just like Norma...but 67gn is max in the Norma brass - pressure and capacity from memory.

    Yeah im using Rem brass, i do have some new 300 norma that i have tried, had to reduce load by a grain from memory as its pretty soft.

    That's impressive. I'll happily remove some brass from you but have a few hopefully ok for reloading. Will need to try 2213SC...got a shitload of 2213 but the SC probably needed to get it in the case.

    Yes it requires a bit of finesse to get it to fit in the case and the few rounds I have seated to mag length are pretty compressed but seem to work well enough.
    Flick me your address if you want
