I am in touch with chuckhammer on a fairly regular basis. I don't doubt his opinion one bit, after all, he and Dave Kiff (PTG) got together and modified the 7mm Practical which had been done years ago but was brought back by Nathan Foster (Terminal Ballistics Research) and it doesn't hurt to get multiple opinions and/or test results. When I'm setting off the equivalent of a half stick of dynamite 6" in front of my face, I'll never turn down any reasonable source of information and any will be greatly appreciated, and wbm thank you for the effort and response.

I'm curious about how many people are playing with the 7 mm Valkyrie that is based on the 300 Win. Mag. case. Apparently there's another 7 Valkyrie because I recieved a go gauge that was for a 7 Val. that was .500 x 1.000" if I remember correctly, that was over a year ago.

Thanks again wbm, everyone have a good one, Paul
