Thread: Low recoil 7mm SAUM load?

Your right it would do the same thing but that means carrying two rifles on a longer range hunt when i could just back the load off in the SAUM and have two loads for the same rifle (assuming they shoot a similar poi.) If a shot presents itself at 600 in goes the 162 if it's closer and the wife is shooting in goes the 140grn round.
