7mm Mag help

1/2" for a "disposable" rifle is pretty good in my book, three shots is kinda small for testing though. Powder has been tough here for a while also but seems to be loosening up. Those corelocts a pretty decent bullets also.

Oh well it is what it is............... Those frangible bullets have made one shot DRT kills on WT Deer, Pronghorn, Axis Deer, Mule Deer, Feral hogs, Aoudad, Impala, Bushbuck, Warthog, Nyala, Kudu, Wildebeest, Oryx, Zebra, Sable and Leopard. From 30 yards to over 600yds. I haven't noticed any lead to pick out of my teeth but I do have one funny looking kid.....

Best of luck with whatever you end up with though!

The 7mm has a hunting weight barrel and it gets steamy after 3 shots hence the 3 shot group
 
back from the range and IMR7828 65gr 2809fps extreme spread 38. still no pressure signs. book max 64. I think that I will stick with the supreme 780 at 66.2 gr at 2911fps

You might have edited your post on the PH in the Bubye. I know the PH and is a wonderful person and a fmaily man and runs a succesful business in Zim and just doesn't want the attention that the internet offers, the ugly kind.

Hello,

Am I reading your post correctly to say that the Tsavo rifle will be coming out with a composite stock later this year? I ask because I had been looking very hard for a Tsavo, but if there is going to be a composite stock model I will wait for that.

Thank you for your time,

Andrew

Saw your post. Nice. Denver too. Genesee area (just off 70) if ever up this way. Alternatively, do you have a membership at GGC? Whatever, you'll have a wonderful time in Africa. Enjoy.
