I mentioned a while ago on a different thread about a left hand Sako 85 chambered in 7x64. Some European companies don't chamber for the 280 but do for the 7x64, a little checking out the ballistics of it put it and the 280 as having pretty much the same ballistics, it turns out that for sure Norma and Hornady produce unprimed brass so the wheels are turning big time in my head If I sell two guns (which are on the block anyway) I should be able to come up with the money for the Sako. After seeing a picture in the first link I will post of the 280 and 7x64 side by side, I had trouble sleeping thinking of the possibilities :lol: scroll down to page 22 and you will see a lineup of a bunch of 7mm cartridges, I'm going to have to pick up a hard copy of Rifle magazine it looks like a great issue all about 7mm cartridges. There is a picture of the 280 Ross on page 16 as well DrMike, looks pretty big next to the 280 Rem neat round too. What do you guys know about the 7x64 you could tell me?
