[QUOTE="rlspahn, post: 1759821, member: 11120"] I shoot a [URL='https://westtexordnance.com/7mm-saw/']7SAW[/URL] - it's a 7mm/08 with the shoulder/neck junction set back to give a 30 degree shoulder. No other changes to the 7mm/08 dimensions and fire forming is not required. It uses SRP brass; I'm using Lapua 308 Palma brass. My rifle is fitted with a 20" barrel and I shoot it suppressed, resulting in an overall barrel length with suppressor a tad over 26". That little cartridge pushes the 150 ELD-X at 2848 fps (LabRadar verified), and I'm running a full grain of Varget below what I determined to be max pressure in my rifle. I don't think you will have any problem reaching those velocities in your longer-barreled AI version. [/QUOTE]
