[QUOTE="Shootin4fun, post: 1194748, member: 28741"] Ancient thread, but I wonder what the effect of too MUCH velocity is on game. I just tried my first reloads with these 120 ttsx in my 7mm RM, and they're going out at 3480 fps with just 1gr over Barnes' starting load IMR4831. No pressure signs. HOLY SMOKES, I'd like to slow it down but it's shooting sub .5 MOA groups. At that speed I'm concerned you'd have to hit shoulder bone at anything under 400 yards except on heavy large bodied animals like elk; but then I'd go heavier anyway. [/QUOTE]
