I have the vyce. It is rock solid with their tripods, very quick and easy to open and clamp it down on a rifle. I haven't used any others but it is great, highly recommend.
I have a 20" 7SS also, I am getting 2850fps with 175 Bergers and RL26. Could probably get more fps, but that was the last load in my initial ladder and it shot great and had like a 3 SD, so just stopped there and it hammers.

a 20" barrel and rl26 will get a 175 berger to 2850fps easily, never went higher and no pressure signs at all, so I could go higher, but don't know how much.
