Know two people with the 7mm stw, one also has the 6.5/300 wby and a 6.5/270 wsm. They had them for a long time. Baltimore county police snipers had some 7mm stw rifle that's why the one guy got his he was a police sniper. Still looking for a round it's going to be at lest another year to I get the funds together. Was really looking at a 30/378 wby but won't fit in my action it is a 7mm rem mag. Going to go with a lija barrel. This need to find a right cartiage for my needs. Have a 257 wby, 300 wby, 338 win, and 7mm rem. So I think a 6.5 will fill need nicely.
