RBros 7mm Mag
« on: August 19, 2012, 10:10:53 AM »
I went and picked my rifle up from Travis yesterday.  I'm excited to start shooting this thing and fine tweaking the load, even though the one Travis used shoots pretty good :tup: (.35moa)

The Build:
~7mm rem mag built around the 180 berger
~Broughton Barrel
~Greybull Precision Stock / with adjustable cheek piece
~Timney Trigger set to 2 lbs
~Black GunKote
~topped with a 6-24X50 Vortex Viper PST FFP

9 Twist?    You didn't get worked into a 7mm Rogue?

Thanks Guys (It was all Travis).

I'm glad he pointed me in the right direction.  I originally went in wanting a .300 RUM and based on what I was wanting to use the gun for and the fact I was new to this he recommended going with the 7mm mag.  Due to barrel life and it was a little less $ (strange for a guy to take money out of his own pocket as the RUM would of required an extended box and muzzle brake).

He did show me how easy it will be to reload his 7mm Rogue though.  Now I have to figure out when I burn this barrel up if I will go with a bigger 7 or jump up to the 338 edge.

Austrian Hunter,
Get in touch with Travis (RBros on the site or 360.791.4741).  I don't want to quote any prices as he may change them and he can pretty much give you an estimate on the fly if you want to add or subtract from the build.

He will be ready for a 7 Rogue on the next barrel.  The 7rm was a better choice on this go around.
