[QUOTE="HarryN, post: 988302, member: 69773"] 7mm STW and 7mm Weatherby - These two look like near twins to me. I am asking this question to learn, not to start a debate. I have looked at these two rounds pretty closely for specs: - Price of reloading supplies and new ammo - Brands of reloading suppliers - Case size, length, parent brass, suppliers of brass for loading - powder capacity, powder charges in reloading manuals - published literature on muzzle velocity, etc. I probably am missing something, but so far, the only differences I have found are: - WBY double radius shoulder vs. more conventional bottle brass shape - 1940 by Roy vs. 1979 by Lane - Which company is making the money, and even that is hardly different anymore - Maybe a 1% difference in muzzle velocity - still not sure on this aspect I am just curious how people chose the STW vs. the Weatherby version. Thanks Harry [/QUOTE]
