    7mm 6.5 prc is a good idea. The cases are almost identical and there is plenty of brass around. The 7mm saum is only 100fps behind the 7prc for a fair bit less powder.

    Just wanting something different, but also very close to a SAUM. Be running the 175gr elite hunters in it. Don't see the need for a 7PRC as I've got the 7mmRM and 162gr just humming. If I want to...

    Browning xbolt hells canyon come with a 1:8 twist which is suitable for heavy projectiles, but you don’t get heavy for caliber unless you reload in rem mag. 28 nosler burns barrels, not much factory...

    I'm a big 7mm fan with x2 7mm creeds, 284win, 7mmRM and a soon to be built 7-6.5PRC. As I've always wanted a SAUM but the brass situation is a turn off and plenty of quality 6.5PRC brass around. ...

    Imo you need to decide what you want and need. Reasonable barrel life? Short action would be saum or 284 although to push the heavies a more medium(3inchish) action is best. Long action would be...

    Reloaders have 7 Saum brass available on their website - they rang me a couple of weeks back to see if I had wanted it. Turned them down cause after a bit of research and advice from the team on...

    Not really an issue in hunting rifles, 7mm Rum is possibly one of the bigger hot rods and mine was still shooting after 1500, that said if you didn't no what your doing it would be toast inside...

    The 7 PRC is also going to fit the Tikka action/mag really well where as the rem mag can be a touch long.

    I went from my rem mag to a saum because I could get the saum on a short action. Bloody love it, awesome cartridge. I probably wouldn’t go back to a rem mag even though it was awesome. BUT, I am a...
