[QUOTE="remingtonman_25_06, post: 110254, member: 1403"] Well I ran these numbers. A 180g vld at 3000fps with a BC of .684 has 1788fps and 1278 ft lbs at 1000 yards. It drifts 52.5 inches @10mph, and drops 229 in. from a 200 yard zero. A 200g WC with a BC of say .850 at 2750fps would be going 1801fps and have 1441 ft lbs at 1000 yards. It would drift 45.5 [email="inches@10mph"]inches@10mph[/email], and drops 252 inches. Hopefully I can seat the bullets out in the magazine and use it as a repearter. I should have enough room to use it as so. I can load my 300 RUM shells out to 3.8". A 7 wsm with a 180 or 200g shouldn't be longer then 3.8" would it? I am leaning more towards this 7 wsm and either of these bullets. To me, it will work very nice for its intended application. Pretty much duplicate my 300 RUM performance, while burning 25g less powder. Just gotta start saving. [/QUOTE]
