I've too much time, tinkering, and components invested in a 7 SupaMag Mashburn that accurately propels a 180 Scenar over 3000fps MV.

Interesting case w/ the Backcountry tho.

It's neat,and an impressive feat of engineering. The problem is that there's like seven people that will be able to appreciate it over other modern long range hunting cartridges.
