Is that minimum freebore with the 180 hybrid and the bearing surface nearest the boat tail at the case shoulder?

I am not using the powders you have listed, but for what it is worth I am getting 3093 fps and a SD of 12.8 using:Building a 7mm saum as a hunting rifle would like to have an idea on loads, with some powders I have on hand and with my rifle specs. I will neck turn all my brass to .015".
What speeds would I expect with the bullets and powders I have listed?
Thank you,

Thats super fast, which reamer freebore?I am not using the powders you have listed, but for what it is worth I am getting 3093 fps and a SD of 12.8 using:

60.9 gr IMR 7828 SSC
Norma Brass
GM210M primers
Running a proof Carbon sendero 24in 8.24 twist, defiance action
I am getting 3100fps with a 162gr and RL26. ~64grs. Never shot the 151gr. But I'm just starting to compress the powder with the 162gr bullet. Still no indication of excessive pressure. You'll get good velocity with RL 26.Do you guys have any idea or load data 7mm saum throated long run it in long action with 151 grain bullet? Powders on hand imr 7977 and imr 8133. Load data or speed? I have a few other powders just not alot of them like 1 pound of rl26 1 pound 4350
You’re loading the PVA 151’s right? I will be soon too, probably use H4350 and load to 3.035.Do you guys have any idea or load data 7mm saum throated long run it in long action with 151 grain bullet?

Yes but the deal fell threw on the new barrel. My buddy had it pretty new but no brass and cant find any so gonna stick with what brass i have and 28 noslerYou’re loading the PVA 151’s right? I will be soon too, probably use H4350 and load to 3.035.
I’m sure RL26 will work but I’d rather save that for something heavier
I couldnt find any in stock anywhereGunwerks should have 7 saum brass
What's your barrel length?I am getting 3100fps with a 162gr and RL26. ~64grs. Never shot the 151gr. But I'm just starting to compress the powder with the 162gr bullet. Still no indication of excessive pressure. You'll get good velocity with RL 26.
I emailed them a few days ago they said no brass for sale in 2021. Its my buddies barrel 300 rds on it kreiger 1-8 twist he had 100 gunwerks to go with it but cant find them. And brass is no where to be found for anythingHmmm. I just looked. They dont show any brass at all. Ive never seen them not have brass. If your still thinking that direction it might be worth a phone call on Tuesday
There was some in the PX not long ago.The barrel is no wait and screw right on to my nuke so it would be nice. You guys have any spare brass laying around?
I will double check.There was some in the PX not long ago.
Yeah im signed up for multi cals and places lolIf you put you email in at adg's website under the caliber you want they will let you know when they make more.
Thank you. I never have much luck with nosler thats what popped up on link. Primer pockets seem to be weak and take downloadingThere is Norma brass available

Nosler adg gunwerks and maybe norma. Im hoping peterson will start making it too.Let us know how it works ill be waiting for awhile before my rifle is done so I’m holding out for ADG. what other options are there besides these two?
I bought an overpriced box that was hiding at my lgs. It’s nice but overpricedAnyone use the nosler saum brass with good luck?

Norma pops up in the PX from time to time, they are also the oem for Nosler.
ADG makes the Gunwerks.
Yes technically since adg makes gunwerks brass. But i think you can sure find it when they put it outso only 2 companies make 7 saum brass, darn

I’m looking for the same info. I’m building a TL3 switch barrel with a 7saum from PVA. H4350 is all I have, and a bunch of 180eld-m’s. I have the MDT SAUM mags, but dont mind single feeding.Anyone have any load data for either 180 ELDMs or 180 Hybrids with H4350 in a short action? I'm currently running 180 ELDMs with H1000 and in Bertram brass and getting 2800fps out of a 26" barrel. Have some 180 Hybrids en route and would like to try H4350 as well as H1000. Most of the loads I've seen for H4350 are in long actions.
