[QUOTE="Slick8, post: 2601440, member: 52585"] Anything from 140-180 will work for your purposes as well as the powders already mentioned. If wanting to hunt out west I'd steer heavier due to shot distance and wind. For example I'm shooting a 20 inch 7 saum which is very close to yours in case capacity. I'm running a 180 hybrid at 2800 for Texas white tails to mulies this fall in NM. I wouldn't think twice about elk if I didn't have a 30 nosler running 230s. The 180s retain more then enough velocity to 1000 yards at 8000 feet which is just out of my comfort zone. I'm a fan of H1k myself due to temp in-sensitivity and consistently low ES. It's a little slower than some and as many others it's very hard to find. Ultimately shoot what you can get your hands on and shop around for preferred components. [/QUOTE]
