[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 1126001, member: 13632"] Your numbers don't jive, to push a 140 in the 6.5 3200 fps you'll need a little more barrel and you will not see the barrel life since most of GAP numbers are much lower than that to get the barrel life. Anyone I know getting over 3000 fps from a 180 in a 7 saum is running a 30 in barrel and pushing it hard and it also won't hit your barrel life wants, a 7-300 win mag at 24 inches will be in the 3000 fps range, a 7-300 wsm might just make it if pushed, how ever none of these throated for the 180 will cycle through a short action without putting a lot of bullet into the powdér.
