    Anyone shooting a 7mm BackCountry?

    Curious if the hype is real or just marketing. The numbers seem awesome. Not a reloader so that aspect is a non issue for me personally. ive read the articles and watched the videos. looking for some primary sources closer to home.

    Short barrels tailored for cans is the order of the day for me. if the articles and press releases are to be believed, its 7mm PRC levels of performance from much shorter barrels. (18-20" vs 24"+)

    anyone have any first hand experience?

    Thanks.

    Pressures are 20k higher than the highest existing SAAMI cartridge out there putting it in their proof pressure levels. I will pass until we see how rifles react over time, plus I reload which isn’t happening with this cartridge.
    I do see the concept being expanded in time to cover other calibers and know the military is real interested in steel cased high psi arms
