7mm WSSM as hunting alternative to 6.5 Grendel/6.8SPC

[gvnwst]

I think I am really seeing it now, a 25 wssm case, necked up, to take a slightly bigger diameter bullet. wow! I am really starting to like this scenario, should be a bit faster than a grendel, but should still be mild pressured, because of the larger diameter bullet. this could really be a great combo.

it allready exists. google the 6.5/243WSSM. now, if only someone would start making ARs chambered for them.

somebody already is making it... Mike at DTECH does make a .243/6.5 WSSM.

lol I am the boom stick bigfood mentioned. I will be excited when magazines for the 35 Gremlin get made.

if you decide to go the 6.5 grendel route i would actually cut the chamber to 6.5PPC.
the grendel is basically a 6.5PPC with no throat.
