    The 2 in my life. Just need mount for the ATACR F1 to go on the 7mm Saum....super easy sizing 300 saum Norma...thought that might be a bit effort on the press...not at all.

    Yep:-) I am in the middle of repainting the stock. The guy who did the paint work before used a black paint that I whipped off with acetone.must have been the water paint from his children paint kit.

    Reviving this thread.
    Was a bit naughty tonight and bought a Mod 7 Laminate/blue in 300saum. Reputed to have only fired 7 shots. Came with 93 rounds of 165 grn Rem factory ammo. It was a bit of a steal.
    I will stick a 'scope on it and thread it for a muffler and get it under way. Quite looking forward to it.

    Welcome to the club, saw that one on trademe, looked nice. There is a nice 338 federal Model 7 there at the moment too. Would make a great bush thumper.

    Yes. Must get back onto them.
    Did Theo tell you I dropped some meat in for him?

    Does the model 7 in saum have any trouble with Cartridge OAL?

    I wondered where that disapeared to! Welcome to the ultra-elite part of the club, the 300Saum model 7 owners guild!

    Im running 165 accubonds at a touch over mag length (2.910) which doesnt really bother me, I have a few loaded up that fit iin the mag and shoot to the same point of impact so will keep them in the mag for spook and shoot, its just a little bit more accurate with the longer oal, hardly anything in it to tell the truth.
