Okay I ran some numbers thru Quickload...I'm actually very surprised...either QL is goofy this morning, I did something wrong or this is true...
My version doesn't have the 175 ELD so I used the 162 AMAX and Reloader 33 powder for all of them and a 24" barrel.
7mm WSM - 3122 fps, 62311 psi.
7mm Rem Mag - 3113 fps, 62149 psi.
7mm Dakota - 3140 fps, 61636 psi.
7mm Wby - 3149 fps, 62917 psi.
7mm STW - 3095 fps, 62440 psi.
7mm/300 Wby - 3165 fps, 62237 psi.
7mm RUM - 3053 fps, 62462 psi.
Lazz Firebird - 3170 fps, 62290 psi.
I have noticed my version of QL is about 150-200 fps slower then real life, but still that's a pretty neat comparison. Of course some tweaking powder and barrel lengths will change things a lot too.
