It was developed by Remington for use in their XP-100 handgun, but has since become popular among long range shooters due to its accuracy and efficiency.The cartridge is based on previous Remington benchrest cartridges, such as the 6mm BR Remington and the .22 BR Remington cartridges. It requires less powder than many other rounds, making it an ideal choice for long range shooting. The 7mm BR is also known for its accuracy, with some shooters achieving impressive results at 500 meters or more.

C.I.P.
The Commission internationale permanente pour l'épreuve des armes à feu portatives ("Permanent International Commission for the Proof of Small Arms" – commonly abbreviated as C.I.P.) is an international organisation which sets standards for safety testing of firearms. (The word portatives ("portable") in the name refers to the fact the C.I.P. tests small arms almost exclusively; it is ordinarily omitted from the English translation of the name.) As of 2015, its members are the national governments of 14 countries, of which 11 are European Union member states. The C.I.P. safeguards that all firearms and ammunition sold to civilian purchasers in member states are safe for the users.
To achieve this, all such firearms are first proof tested at C.I.P. accredited Proof Houses. The same applies for cartridges; at regular intervals, cartridges are tested against the C.I.P. pressure specifications at the ammunition manufacturing plants and at C.I.P. accredited Proof Houses.
