    7mm RM... Marginally or significantly more capable then .260?

    Yep you should see a 5-7ish% increase. I think you should see a 150fps gain over what you have now. That's a lot of performance IMO. I was made a believer in this combo with a 140gr berger hybrid and H4831 sc. It impressed me anyhow. Best of luck to you. Keep us posted.

    I really like the AI version of this cartridge and think it really shines this way. Good luck to the OP, and have fun with whatever you decide.

    Just a quick thought for you. Have your smith run a AI reamer in it and there you have more performance. Many advantages to consider, burn up what you have then move on to the next build, you already have everything you need to make it happen. However a new build is certainly fun.

    300 Ultra Mag action???

    one thing to be aware of is building the lapua mag you will have to buy another bolt face as it is larger. some have had a smith open the bolt face up but I have heard mixed reviews on that. Never done it myself. lots of great performing cartridges available to build off your action for ELR. In...

    6.5saum no turn neck

    thanks palma, I have spent afew hours today on youtube ect, looking into neck turning. I have a better understanding of it now and it looks more time consuming than difficult. looks like there are lots of options for neck turning equipment as well. With the performance of this cartridge combined...

    6.5saum no turn neck

    thank you very much! so I would want the chamber reamed with the 4s reamer but with .298" neck diameter? Barney88PDC have you chambered with these specs? If so was the outcome just as great as the tight neck chamber guys a reporting . thanks for the reply.

    6.5saum no turn neck

    Has anyone done or have any information they could share on 6.5saum with a no turn neck chamber? I haven't been able to find any info on this. Perhaps its because accuracy would be greatly affected by not turning the neck? Maybe it is much simpler than I think to turn necks but, it is a little...
