If you never shot over 600 yards?

My understanding of the SAW is that it doesn't increase capacity at all vs a straight 7-08 so any velocity increases are in effect just pressure increases. And you cant shoot factory 7/08 ammo in one.

So you can get the same velocity from a straight 7-08? That changes alot if true

You can get quite a bit more velocity out of a 7 SAW. That’s the whole point of the cartridge. Ira just mostly coming from higher pressures, not increased powder capacity

I haven’t messed with either but at the same pressures and depending on throat spec, 7-08 SHOULD go at least as fast at same pressures.

The question is does the SAW case hide pressure signs enough better to allow higher velocities prior to seeing said pressure signs? Seems to be a fair number of peoples saying the answer is yes.
