Remi Warren did his contractually obligated ad on his FB page yesterday for the 7mm Backcountry. 228 comments already and all but a couple are negative. His followers are typically positive fanboys so it appears people are tired of the “new cartridge machine’ that the industry has become.

He's just shilling like other influencers. Dude was awesome when he was just the solo hunter.

I’m all for advancements and see the benefits for certain applications and I’m sure will try it out myself at some point. But here’s how I view it now for hunting.
I can either buy a 7prc rifle, brass, dies or factory ammo for $50/box. Or I can buy a 7BC rifle which I’m guessing is going to be more expensive, more expensive dies, and alloy cases, or factory ammo for Im guessing $80-$100 box or more.
Both will probably achieve similar performance(guessing within 100fps) and I’m assuming close to the same recoil. It’s just going to cost way more to shoot the 7BC.
Also I would think this will change the minimum barrel length ratings for your suppressor. I would also assume a 7BC country is going to be pretty loud at 80kpsi out of a 16” Bbl no matter what can your using.
On the price of 7 BC, Powder Valley has it listed (not in stock) between $49 and $63 per box.
