7mm sherman max

[elkaholic]

Ya, I tried to deal with Redding in large quantites and they STILL wanted a fortune

I just ordered a reamer for 7 saum ia 40. Now you bring out exactly what I was looking for. Redding wanted a fortune to make the dies.....going to go with neil jones and ream a seat die from a blank

If you wanted head stamped brass down the road you could likely still clean up your chamber with my reamer.

So you just take 7 SAUM brass and fire it to form this case?

Yep

Earlier you mentioned a 26" barrel, would a 24" barrel not work well with this? Or is the 26" just gonna be better all around?

2" would probably amount to about 50'
It would still run a 180 at 3000+

Rich, would this cartridge be offered with Forster dies?

When you say 3000 FPS with 180's which powder are you referring to? I know you can get 2970-3000 FPS in standard saum with 180 vld and RL 26 in a short action with 26" barrel.

I think with the max version, it will open up the possibilities to run the 180 3000' with several powders including H1000 and close to 3100' with the ones that curr ently make 3000'.

For people wanting to just form SAUM brass, there shouldn't be a need to neck turn should there?

Nope! It will be exactly like Saum and brass price will be competitive with ADG Saum only Sherman head stamp

Well Rich you should do it I think it would get attention for sure. I like the Tikka idea and Wildcat Customs up here does complete drop in stocks too at 18oz. Would make a nice lightweight out fit with a quarter the price and wait time of some others.
Really curious on parent case.

Wildcat is working on a new model that will accommodate CF barrels as well (for Tikkas).
