thmprwildcat from 376 Steyr?
Has anyone necked down the 376 Steyr to 7mm or .308? Sorry if this is old an question.

SlingsterI have been told that Steve Hornady made up a 30-376 for himself that pretty much duplicates the .300 WM.
I've also read in these forums that Z-Hat is making a 416-376 for a customer, but have been unable to find out more info.
When developing the new case, Steyr-Mannlicher had a vision of building a family of cartridges on the .376 Steyr case from 6.5mm to .416 caliber. Perhaps with a little encouragement from .376 Steyr fans they might revive those plans. On the other hand, perhaps it's already too late, given the Rem and Win short magnums have a substantial lead in the marketplace.

thmprI just figured that if "short & fat is where it's at". Then someone must be trying to seat a 7mm bullet on top of the Steyr.
