[QUOTE="aramarine6, post: 1131895, member: 24685"] The time has come to move from my beloved 338 RUM to a 7mm mag. The 338 RUM used to be the "poor mans lapua." But now that brass is nearly impossibly to find and Nosler charges $65 for 20 pieces of brass. I have made the decision to go with a bartlein barrel, M40 contour, finished at 26 inches. My biggest hurdle is figuring out which is the best twist rate for this build. I'm currently waiting on Bartlein's opinion on twist but figured I'd pick your guys brains. The lightest bullet weight I'll be shooting is the 162 Amax and the heaviest being the 180 Bergers. Your opinions are greatly appreciated. [/QUOTE]
