[QUOTE="Korhil78, post: 532687, member: 34818"] Using a 7mm 180 gr Berger VLD with a BC of .659 out of a 7MM Ultra mag, the bullet will be travelling around 3000fps. Some may get it faster than that. With that load you would be able to take down an elk at over 1k if you were experienced at shooting at those ranges. I shot an Oryx at a lasered 338 yards with 140 gr Barnes TTSX. The bullet was travelling at around 3300 FPS from the muzzle and you could see the dust fly up when the bullet penetrated all the way through the Oryx (broadside shot). 7mm is a very, very good elk cartridge. I really like the 7mm Ultra mag. [/QUOTE]
