[QUOTE="c_bass16, post: 1123783, member: 20355"] Here's my numbers with all three bullets (168VLD, 180 VLD and 180 Hybrid) from a custom built M70 7mm Rem Mag Match, with a 25" Rock Creek barrel, Nosler custom brass and RL33. All speeds were achieved with the exact same die settings, and exact same powder charge. All bullets performed at .4-.5 MOA and I got just around 1200 rounds before accuracy opened up to about 1 MOA. Used 100 pieces of brass for all 1200 rounds and it's still going strong. 168 VLD - 3030 FPS (RL33 is not ideal for this bullet because you run out of capacity well before pressure signs are seen) 180 VLD - 3105 FPS 180 Hybrid - 3066 FPS All have killed with essentially the same terminal performance.
