Can anyone tell me about this cartridge. Not finding much info. There is a lot of knowledge here, please share. Thanks

South Dakota? Asking about that cartridge, I assume you're near Wakanda.

Thanks for the info. You got any dies? JK. I might have been to Wakonda a few times to visit. Not really close

There's an auction there that has a 308 Moses ending tomorrow. Figured you were eyeing it too. They had a set of dies but they sold on Sunday.

Thats the problem with asking questions on a public forum. It might drive up cost. Thanks Buddy.

The comments make it seem like the "7mm Moses" is a 7/08. So is a 308 moses a 308?

I wouldn't know for sure. According to the video, its necked for a 7mm bullet. Now, looking at the not so clear pic, it appears like a 7-08 blown out with a shorter neck. Maybe more powder, a little more velocity. The only reason I asked here was there is very little information on it. One internet thing indicated there were three Moses round, this one, a 7mm one and ? The main reason i was interested in other than a unique caliber is a well built custom with a $1000 used price scope on it. I tried to look up Precision Rifle Works but it doesn't appear they are operating. They may have made the barrel but that is just a guess on my part. After my friend chimed in on the auction location, I lost some interest. It sold for a little over $1000 with fees and taxes. I did buy an unknow cartridge rifle in the 7.65 area. Purchased some Cerra safe and will figure out what I got. I'll pick it up tomorrow. As usual, I bought more stuff than I need but having too much powder that is decently priced is never a bad thing.

I was going to ask the same thing...isn't this just a 7mm-08?
