[QUOTE="preventec47, post: 395073, member: 22159"] I do something nobody else that I know agrees with or does, but two years ago after shoulder surgery I had to reduce the recoil and I researched the Barnes bullets. Even though they are lighter starting out ( and faster ) at the end of the trip they weigh the same as much heavier bullets because they stay together so well. SO instead of downloading my 7mm with what I used to like in the 150 -165 gr range bullets I switched over totally to 110 gr Barnes solid copper for deer and hog hunting. I an getting right at 3450 fps with drastically reduced recoil. There is simply no need to use heavy bullets any more unless you are perhaps hunting grizzlies. Consider how well 25-06 and maybe 243 do with 110 gr and then add a few hundred extra fps. If you try this you will never go back to heavy bullets. [/QUOTE]
