[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 199289, member: 2011"] Smokepole, Linksmechanic gave good info on the Berger. I don't shoot a 7 but have used a pecker wood 270 Win for years with 130 Sierra Boat Tails. If the deer was closer than 200 yards meat damage was always successive especially if the shoulder was hit, not bone just meat and ribs). Whole front half was pretty much wasted. However it was bang flop pretty much each time. I have since switched to Nosler ballistic tips to keep from blunting the lead points on cartridges in the magazine. I've shoot deer quartering away, hitting just ahead of the ham and exiting the off side front shoulder. Great penetration, great performance and bang flop and minimal meat damage. [/QUOTE]
