Thread: 7mm something.....

So - I have a T3 in 2506 not being used, put it up at a very cost effective buy for someone on here, but no, just too damn tight around here. Just happen to have a 7mm08 Savage barrel that didn't sell either.

New plan, Savage barrel ( 22" ) will turn down to T3 tenon spec, so maybe I fit it to the T3 and it will be a 7mm08 with long mag and bolt stop straight off the bat.
But - because it's a Savage, reaming for an alternate chamber is drama free, but what, and why?
7mm Mauser imp? .284 Win?, .280 Rem, 280 Rem imp, 7mm PRC, 7mm mag?

Just so happens I have 7mm08 dies, cases and 130 120gn NBT's, maybe a good place to start, but I'm open to debate on cartridge and pill.

I've H4831, 2209, IMR4895, IMR4320 and Superformance on the shelf

Maybe do it to sell, maybe as a standard hunting gun, maybe a dedicated long range rig. How well would it behave in whatever given role? Do I leave it in 25/06 cause it is just such a good 400yd lights out killer of deer? (117 Interlock at 3150)

So many questions on a pissing down wet Mackenzie Sunday.
