    7mm... Which one?

    Brass availability is limiting factor in 7’s today, 6.5 PRC does appear available and I would neck it up to 7 or I would try to get saum brass from ADG, but it’s hard to get sometimes ….bbl length can help with smaller case

    Bertram Brass 6.5 Saum

    164 no turn, 157 turned to 13...........i would double check the quality control on the brass depending on level of accuracy you want, its tough enough, just might not have great consistency....

    7 PRC

    thanks for sharing, i think this ia a good time to remind everybody that the 7mm-190 from both H and B have an extremely high BC that takes a huge 30 cal bullet to beat it, with a 26" bbl this is a great combo from a "factory" offering....yes, a lot of other calibers can do it via handloading...

    **6 Creedmoor**

    depends on your altitude and tempratures a bit, 7.4 is most likely all you will need, sea level at 32F

    7 saum

    i have been using N165 in 7/300wsm and it is represented correctly in the powder burn chart, it is not as temp stable as h4831sc, its not horrible, just not as stable as the h extreme powders

    7mm PRC

    yes, and no, not as much capacity as saum...7-6.5prc about 70 and saum 73 gr h2O with 30" bbl and 4350 or n555 they get 2900 plus with a case nearly full vs saum being less full to do the same....mag bolt face (and non rebated rim) to handle same pressure as 284 standard bolt face...

    N-165/ 6.5 PRC

    Drop tube probably…….it’s a grain or two faster than H1000 and similar the other way vs 4831sc

    Anyone had problems loading ADG 6.5 PRC Brass?

    The issue is the toughness of the brass and you need a sizer that sizes .005 down a the bottom the case, opening the chamber helps the sizer do more work as said above also, but I think most sizers only size .003 down and the new adg brass is tough
