I have a fair bit of new Norma 7mm REM mag brass so that my back up option but rifle if just about ready to be chambered but kind of wanted something a bit nicer than just a plain old 7mm Rem Mag as it's just a bit plain and cost is already up there. Have a 1-8 twist 26 inch Brux and a ~3.75" mag box. Not really chasing huge speed but wanting to explore for a node at 3000ish with the 180 ELD M without huge pressures. Rifle suitable for .532 bolt face but can be enlarged as they also came in 416 Rigby factory.

I've been using Norma 26 Nosler brass in my 28 Nosler. Running 195s at 3075 fps. No issues with it being soft at all like I've also experienced with SAUM Norma brass.

7mm Blaser Mag is probably a good option for 180s at 3k.

28 Nosler can do that super easy but prob still using more powder than blaser mag.
