Thoughts on New Federal 7mm Back Country

[kgarrett]

price of available rifle in 7mmBC

And actual availability. Announcing is not the same as available to buy.

Not worried about the weight mate. I think the 4" shorter barrel with the same or better performance it what sounds appealing to me.....And like I said before it would be only if I could reload. It's crazy how people will say something is absolutely terrible without even laying hands on it and trying it out. Keep an open mind, it will save you a lot of stress!

Unable to reload this one seems to be the most pertinent fact that we're dealing with here. I didn't think my tongue in check comment was "absolutely terrible" that's like the perpetually outraged Democratic Party member who's always taking offence when none's given.

Probably already started but Seekins is going to this for all there actions and savage is building some. I think you have to buy a gun that is made for this type of ammo or a receiver and then barrel it up. I don't think all the actions already out there are spec out like this.

Factory loads are so good these days, there is no need to reload unless you just want too. Even the Remington Tipped Coreloks shoot great in most rifles.

so,

if you're NOT an avid reloader, the 7mm BC will be a great choice for you in a "do all" round.

I'm almost 73 and have been an avid reloader for most of those. now, not so much, call it lazy but it just doesn't git me goin anymore

Just build you a 28 nosler and you can get better speed out of it with out any pressure signs I'm shooting 195 Bergers at 2965 fps. And can go more if needed good luck on what ever you do.

I have a new AnTi Custom 22" threaded 5/8-24 28 Nosler all set to go listed here. Weighs just 6lbs. https://www.longrangehunting.com/threads/custom-28-nosler-defiance-anti-proof.372317/
