Default The 7mm Practical?

Has anyone used this cartridge? What are your overall impressions? Thanks.

I had a 7mm Yukon which is pretty close to the same thing. It was awesome.... Should have kept it, but needed the funds. It got STW speeds with much less powder.

I wanted to build one for years. In the end I found a great deal on a custom 28 Nosler and got that instead.

In the picture of the target it looks as though a bullet keyholes.

I'm not sure if these rifles are called the Practical's but I would think that they are pretty close...

A fellow at our shooting range, and his friend both have short case Magnums with long throats,,, they bought the reamers and have continued to build more of them...

There doing the same thing with these short cases in 30 cal as well,,, super easy for them to build their own rifles...

They have a fellow South of Red Deer that threads the barrels as they look after the rest of the fittings...
Since the booltiz seat loooooong they use long action rifles with extra long bottom feeds to handle them...

Pretty kool looking rifles fore sure...

I'll get his cell number next time I run into him or his friend when they come out to the range later this summer...
