Grimo ,
We're not that thick !

How about a nice model 70 featherweight 7mm WSM ? Got the Sako 85 bug and thinking of selling mine . Good round though and would probably go same again .

Yeah 375. It'll do it all with the right bullets. But if you want to borrow my reamer we'll turn it into a 375RUM with a simple rechamber.
