[QUOTE="BrentM, post: 771306, member: 61747"] Sorry to sound so ignorant but why is a 7mm better? Is it the weight and speed? Sectional density? For example the 7mm 168 Berger has a bc of .617 and the 6.5mm 140 Berger is .612. Pretty close. I assume the 168 is slower than the 140 but is it fast enough to make up the difference? I have been considering 7mm once my 6.5 barrel is done. Was thinking a 7 LRM, but wow 3300 ft with 6.5 seems pretty awesome for LR. Anyone, sorry to hijack, I am still learning about all this stuff and there is lot I don't understand yet. [/QUOTE]
