[QUOTE="rockwind, post: 2824545, member: 84735"] generally acknowledged best factory 7 rem mag ammo for bull elk? there is pretty much no way i am going to be stretching out past 500-600 and i am not going to be shooting across any canyons. getting older, so plan on shooting first halfway decent bull i see which i can pretty much drive to within a few hundred yards hopefully this doesn't attract the usual "what, are you an idiot?" responses. yes, i reload, fairly competently but the summer is booked and i have a decent bull tag for once but not into spending days resetting up my reloading stuff for it, i have a decent 180 gr berger hybrid load but i only have a few rounds left somewhere., nosler brass, h1000 but heavy sigh at cranking some out so will be going with some over the counter stuff. i do know that different ammo shoots different out of different guns so just looking for opinions or experience. i do have some factory winchester ballistic silver tip ammo which shoots darn good out of it but is only 150 gr my 7 rem mag is a custom with a 1:9 twist, sporter barrel. running a tbac suppressor on it. other choices i could shoot with 6.5 saum with 143 gr smk,,, also no time to use figure out reloading for lastest greatest elr bullets or a 338 AI, which i will just be shooting regular 338 lapua ammo with 300 gr berger hybrids, or maybe 250's. if any super smart types need further data, feel free to pm. cross-posted also [/QUOTE]
