SAUM’s Share yours from Hunting or Comp. Pics Heavy !!

Recoil is about the same with the heavies in the 6.5 given similar rifle weight. What I like the most of the 7 SAUM is ability to shoot the heavy 175-180 class bullets. Within the distance you specified I'm not sure the critter could tell the difference.
On the other hand, that 6.5 feels lonely and needs a bigger brother next to it 🤣
Don't forget the 195's!

I bought my first 6.5 saum in 2014 I've definitely made the best shots of my life on animals with this rifle. The coyote I'm holding in the picture was 1008 yards. I can't even count how many coyotes I've killed from 200-900 yards with it. The bucks weren't super far 503-689 yards all one shot kills hitting right where I wanted to. I built another 6.5saum and 7saum this year but haven't hunted with them yet.
