    One of the drillers here refers to everyone as 'big bore xxx'

    Big Bore Matt, Big Bore Pete, etc. It's very weird.

    Do we need a separate forum for the 'elite'?

    We think our nightshift driller (different one) was doing his offsider in the water truck, but we have no proof. He doesn't actually deny it at all.

    7mmSAUM, 338 I will build on the SAUM case this one loaded with a 185TTSX, 308 for reference

    waiting for a date for the barrel.... Dies that will be moded on the way, have the brass so the 45-70 is on the back burner again .

    Yup I think so... not to long for a short action, sort of a heavy duty 338 version of the 308

    the 308 in the pic is only loaded with a 150 to the crimp line, If I had one that I load for a mates rifle there his would have been longer the the 338, the 7mm has a 140VLD in it
