7mm-300WSM 45° Improved, only 81 total rounds fired, consistently printed under 3/8" groups with both Berger 175gr EH's and 180gr Hybrid Target loads on virgin brass with no load development. The SRS Ti Pro 5-port almost completely removes recoil and is a pleasure to shoot. Never hunted, only shot at our outdoor 1400 yard range this summer by me and my 12 year old son, still looks like a brand new rifle in the case. Complete rifle package that comes with everything needed to make your own precision ammo. Will be an excellent lightweight LR hunter.

The 7mm-300WSM Improved utilizes a 45° shoulder based off the 270WSM and 300WSM, which is shorter than the standard 7WSM. The benefits are a longer neck to support the longer heavier bullets and availability of good quality Lapua, Norma and ADG brass, which the plain 7WSM does not have.
I make my cases out of 270WSM Norma. It doesn't get any easier, simply take the 270WSM case and run it through a 7mm expander mandrel (included).
