    Just do it bro. Haters gonna hate.

    16" mod 7. Shes 2.7 kg all up and not too bad to shoot. Deer out to 380 odd and gongs out till I run out of dial 165 NBT doing 2650 so plenty of grunt out to 500

    Reason I wanted a pig was.....well anyone ever hunted the Kaimai's

    @VTR, your M7 7Saum could look like this (or close enough, maybe 17-18" but with a Magnum DPT) get it into DPT and see if they will be happy to shorten and thread on the flutes.

    You whitnessed what a 17" 284 with Amax at 2700 can do, an 18" 7Saum will only be better that than, 2800+ fps probably. Get into it
