Thread: Help from the knowledge bank

I have 2 7mm Rem Mag, both suppressed, i will shoot ALL DAY with both of them if need without hesitation. Unsuppressed is is a VERY LOUD boom and will kick, however i still can fire "few" shots without to many issue, it is all about how you keep up with it.

Good luck, I wish i could help you letting you have a go on my rifles to try it.

Mates have 7mmRM and .308. The 7RM boasts awesome ballistics, but the blast is horrendous. I developed a flinch years ago when shooting .308 (aka mule) in competition so will stay clear of .30cal now I've overcome that with 6.5.
So I've been looking at the WSM range and liking the .270wsm and 7mmwsm. They both scream out of muzzle at well over 3200fps and drop and wind resistance is as good as 7RM.
Questions:
1. Are the fat short magnums still a problem with feeding into breech?
2. Are they both just as loud as 7RM?
3. Is finding brass an expensive nightmare?
4. Do the WSMs boot like mules?
5. Is barrel life particularly short?

Lastly, does anyone have a Tikka T3 Hunter Stainless Fluted in 7mm WSM with good quality scope they want to sell me?
