    Greetings, If you are wanting a 7mm with magnum performance and a factory fast twist barrel then the 7mm PRC is probably your best choice. Remington now lists an eight inch twist for their 7mm Rem...

    There was a short fad for 7mm Blaser Mag when I was deciding, but I went with 7mm Rem Mag in the end. I agree that most factory rifles have too slow twist for the newest, sleekest projectiles, but...

    Another consideration what's barrel life on the big 7mm bangers like ? Have heard of noslers and some prcs being toast after as little as 600 rounds. No hate at all I love my magnums but genuinely...

    7 mm STW was my choice, probably 10% better than 7 mm Magnum. I had to use 8 mm Magnum cases necked down but ammo is available off the shelf now. With reloading one does not get many loads to the...

    Really just comes down to what you intended use is. An off the shelf 7 Rem Mag is going to limit you as far as twist rate & COAL. Most off the shelf rifles will have a 1/10 - 1/11 twist so you could...

    I've been down this road having tried a couple of magnums and have just put a cheap 7mm PRC together to give a try. Ammo and or reloading components is one thing to consider take the Blaster magnum...

    I love my 7WSM. Ammo and brass is unobtainable, you can’t neck down from 300WSM and going up from 270WSM requires fire-forming, the case neck is supposedly too short for a good seat and my magazine...

    There are a few 7mm magnums to consider if you want to scratch this itch. I guess it depends on your intended use, how far out you intend to shoot and whether you reload or not. Not sure what factory...
