I am getting a Brux barrel chambered in 7mm RSAUM. This will be my first custom rifle and thus I have a lot to learn. I believe my gunsmith has a 7mm RSAUM reamer set to SAAMI specs. I would like to be able to mag feed this gun and shoot the 168 Berger VLD's (I know the 180's are out for mag fed).
The gun will be based on a Savage Model 16 short action and I'll be using a Mcree Precision TMAG stock.
What do you guys think? Will I be able to shoot the 168's from a mag and still have some room to play with seating depth and/or chase the lands?
Should I instruct the gunsmith to do anything special considering my intentions? I have asked him as well but SSS is difficult to get a hold of
Forgot to mention that I will be using Remington brass if that helps
Thanks for the help!
