Title: 7mm wildcat
Post by: mountainman on September 15, 2018, 07:48:02 AM

Anyone here have any experience with the 7mm Pratical? Been around for a few years and looks like a great chambering for long range ahooting deer bear and elk.

There seems to be a good amount of new interest in 7mm Wildcats.  I think a 7-300 Norma mag or 7-300 Norma mag Improved would be a fun one to play with and with Lapua now making 300 Norma mag brass, it has probably gained even more interest.  The 300 Norma is a fair bit shorter case which will help with long OAL's too.

I have built a few of them .  Most of the 7/300 variants are all pretty close in performance.
