New Federal 7mm Backcountry “Ammunition Reinvented”

My concern is higher pressure in the same actions / guns that are not designed for those higher presures. The measure of safety seems to me is being reduced. Could be wrong.
 
Federal says it's reloadable. We'll see.
I watched a u tube video from federal on reloading it there are 2 cases the premium one plated in side & out side & 1 only plated on the out side which is not recommended to be reloaded i think this technology is the future of small arms ammo. I think i will stay with old brass 60,000 psi ammo it still does the job.

I watched the same video. I noted when the R&D guy mentioned he WAS NOT using a canister powder, but a Federal propriety powder for his demo.

He did state data would be made available for commercial powders, but in that same video did you notice how much the bench flexed when he sized the case? Yikes.

thanks for your reply bob , is it feasible to build a 444 on a P14/M17 , or is the no4 enfield easier to build? i know where i can buy a lothar walther barrel in 44, 1-38 twist , but i think with a barrel crown of .650" the profile is too light .
