[QUOTE="mrb1982, post: 752844, member: 50419"] Good point hahaha I am no master, but I have heard of a lot of people shooting elk up to 1000yds with a 168gr Berger. If it is any guidance for you, I shoot a 7RM Sendero and will be hunting long range mule deer and elk(hoping to be good enough to shoot out to 1000yds with practice) and I am gonna shoot the 168gr Berger. I really want to try the 180 hybrid, but I don't have the cash right now to start buying a bunch of boxes of bullets to test out. I have 2 boxes of 168's, I'm gonna work up a load, shoot like crazy, and then when the 2 boxes are gone, I will consider the heavier stuff. These match the twist in my barrel best so I am confident I can find a load for them, and if I ever decide to step up more, I will wait till Berger comes with that 195gr, rebarrel, and then bore it out to one of those 7mm-300win mags that I have read about on here and have all I would ever need to kill out to 1300-1500yds. Like I said, I'm no master, just a beginner, but have read so much of this stuff in the last year that it could almost make my head spin. hahahaha [/QUOTE]
