I'm looking to purchase a rifle in the 7mm STW caliber and would like to know if anyone knows a manufacturer of rifle in this caliber?
Thanks.
I don't think any of the mainstream companies chamber this round nowadays. The Ultramags have kinda ended that. 2 years ago I found a brand new Remington Sendero SF in a STW, still in the box on gunsamerica.com. Might want to keep tabs on that site. Remington quit chambering it in production rifles in 2002 I believe, and savage and winchester a year or so later.Not sure about any other companies, 116buck mentioned Sako, I haven't looked into those lately.
But yea, if you decide to rechamber a regular 7 mag, at least get a 26" barrel. You'll be burning +/-80 or so grains of powder, you'll need it to get the velocities a STW is capable of.
I love mine in that Stainless Sendero. A little heavy, but it's my powerline/field gun, and the truck usually ain't far away
