The new 7mm will be coming home on Saturday. Nothing special, just another povo tikka. Dies arrived 2 weeks ago, currently using Forster jobbies and found this set in the clearance section for a very reasonable price. Bushing bump, body and micrometer seater.
Looking forward to Sunday and making some noise.

Nice Glen a very effective cartridge, what pills you going to run 160 odd? I know they spit 140's out at very nice velocity

I've wanted a 7rm to play with for ages. I'm had a stevo with a drop in barrel but sold it in a weak moment. I have a 7mm barrel and a AI stock sitting here but I don't have any long action stiller's laying around to do the build. One day....

I think your mojo is doing a turnaround Seddo.

Hey Ryan. I've got some 120's for splat attack on rarebits and also have some 162grn AMax's that Glenn got for me 3 years ago during the great 7mm shortage that nearly brought the country to its knees.

It might be a long term project to start getting it back. But then I sent an action to a gunsmith to get a 308 barrel fitted this week and that hasn't got me back.

Very nice,
I have to get off my butt and get my .280 Ackley sorted.
Got everything except the time to get it to Col Crittenden to get chambered, threaded and crowned. Oh and screwed in too.
