RE: 30-06 vs 7mag
You started out with the notion that the 30-06 would deliver more velocity than the 7mmremmag with similar bullet weights based on one source that you yourself have not even verified..Once several sources ofevidencewere produced that contradicted that claim,you changed your tune to claim that it took 30% more powder for the 7mmremmag to match or exceed the velocities produced by the 30-06.Once the ridiculous 30% figurewas disproved you are clinging on to the 30-06 being slightly more efficient.You have changed your arguement because your original statement was proven wrong and you are nowtrying to win some small point to prevent total defeat.I do not know you,but my impression is that you do not have a great deal of reloading experience,and have not done a lot of chronograph testing or verification of posted trajectories.With that limited experience and very limited resources to compare data,it is understandable how you can blindlytrust the data that you have.On the other hand,I have been reloading many cartridgesfor over 25 years,have done a great deal of chronograph testing with many different cartridges and have firedseveral thousandbullets at ranges out to 500 yards to see the actual trajectories that they deliver for a given velocity.My advice is to gather as much data from as manysources as possible and thenobtain as much relatedexperience as possible before making claims,unless of course you like being proven wrong.
