Yeah, I know they aren't too common. Thanks for the info.

Definately will do. I'm planning on hitting the range the week after next. I'm also doing alot of 7mm WSM test load firing so it will be a long day. Thanks for the reply.

Thanks ST, it's on an M98 action. It's real simple to strip the bolt so I'll proceed along those lines.

Sadly, it's time to thin the herd. But if I were to get another, I'd like to try the .257 Roberts as the caliber. Model, an old Model 70.

I'll add my .02 FWIW. I love my Pre-64 M 70's. A plain ole 30-06 and 2 Supergrades, a .220 Swift and another '06. I also have other Winchesters so I guess I'm a big fan. In 2006 during Winchester New Haven's troubled times, I bought a M70 7mm WSM new at a good sale price. I didn't get...

Good news, thanks for the reply.

Thanks, the stripped bolt is a good idea. I didn't think of that.

Many thanks for the reply.

The 7 MB, a classic. I've not wanted to push the bullet into the lands. I know the reason why people do it but I'm afraid of too much pressure. Thoughts unfounded? Thanks Joel.

I have a 25-06 that has a long chamber. It was made when the cartridge was still a wildcat. It will take a no-go and a field gauge. Without going into details, I was going to fire form .270 brass. I've created a false shoulder on the .270 cartridge so that I need some resistance to close the...

I see that. No pressure signs in my rifle. I will say it kicks like hell at the bench. Thanks. When I get to shooting it again, I might throttle back a bit. I do not recommend that anyone else attempt to use these loads as they might be dangerious in their rifle. Work up to maximum loads...

Thanks Idaho, yes the 150 I used is Flat base, "pretty close, I'm impressed! ME QL 200 Nosler 3000 2986 180 Nosler 3200...

I'd be grateful if I could get a QL report on these 3 rounds, thanks, Fred Winchester 300 Win Mag. Browning A Bolt, 26” barrel 200 grain Nosler Partition 71 grains IMR 4831, WLR Standard/Magnum primers RP Cases, 3.372” case with bullet OAL 91 grains case water capacity 180 Nosler Partition 73...

ALOT less recoil than the 300 Win Mag. If I had to do it all over again, I'd get the 7mm Rem Mag and call it a day.

Thanks for the reply. I do have a Chrony from the early 1990's and have used it. I've not used it so much for readings but to give me "an idea" of where I'm at. I don't know how accurate it is and while I may not totally believe the readings, I think I'm in the ballpark. For instance, it...

Thanks much, I will see how that data corresponds to what I've come up with.

Hi all, and thanks for the add. I'm starting to handload a 7mm WSM that I bought in the mid 90's, better late than never. The 3 powders I have mentioned in the title are the ones I want to try and I'm starting with 2 different bullets: the 154 Hornady and the 145 Speer Grand Slam. Problem...
