    That's cool but you're not reading what I wrote. I replied to Toby who was specifically talking about necking 7mm Rem Mag down to 6.5mm

    Obsolete feature, can lead to short case life as the case headspaces off the belt not the shoulder

    There appears to be a phenomenon where by everyone starts assuming a post is referring to theirs, when it isn't. This seems to accumulate to a point where it is just utter chaos.

    I'm tempted to try and unravel it all, but it would take a big whiteboard, and many different colored pens and I don't have those.

    I for one think the case next to the 7mm rem mag looks like an improvement. I don't like belted cases. I am aware it's the 6.5mm version, just for clarity.
    It has got clutter but it's a forum everyone can go for it. I don't care what they put in here.

    It is the 6.5 version the 7mm one is the same but with amax in it

    You can and i have done it with my light and heavy edge, blew huge holes in sika under 100 yrds away.

    The light one was fine in an eyeball jiggly kind of a way
    A big fast bullet beats a little fast bullet every time
