Thread: Discussion around 7mm Magnums

I'm a big 7mm fan with x2 7mm creeds, 284win, 7mmRM and a soon to be built 7-6.5PRC.
As I've always wanted a SAUM but the brass situation is a turn off and plenty of quality 6.5PRC brass around.

To be honest the 7PRC is the next kid on the block for the heavy 7mm pills. But you can't really beat a 7mmRM with 160-168gr pills at sensible hunting distances

Slightly off topic but why the 7mm / 6.5prc over the 7prc? just wanting to limit your performance or am i missing something?

Just wanting something different, but also very close to a SAUM. Be running the 175gr elite hunters in it.
Don't see the need for a 7PRC as I've got the 7mmRM and 162gr just humming.
If I want to go bigger, I'll just grab the 300PRC ��

7mm 6.5 prc is a good idea. The cases are almost identical and there is plenty of brass around.
The 7mm saum is only 100fps behind the 7prc for a fair bit less powder.
