I was hoping some of you could give me info on the 7mm stw and the 7mm ultra mag. How they grouped and at what yards? What loads you were using? What style gun was it? If you shot both, which gun did you like better? Any info would be helpful. Thanks

    I shot the Sndero in most of the UM calibers. They group very well with factory ammo. One thing I see with these large capacity calibers is that they don't use all of their powder in a 26" barrel and tend to foul quickly. They are good shooters though. Guy at the range had the STW and wasn't grouping at all. We looked inside and it was filthy. We cleaned it and it shot well after that, however, in the few rounds he shot through it, I don't feel they should foul that fast.

    I have a remington M700 ADL converted to 7STW with a Douglas bull barrel.It will group rounds that touch at 100 yards. It gives me 3500 fps muzzle velosity and shoots so flat it will scare you.(450 yds no problem). It hits big game as hard as a brick. I shot a big mulie at 75 yards and it lifted him 3 feet in the air upon impact.Pretty awsome.
