[QUOTE="JordanJ, post: 1356702, member: 98015"] I have been a 7mm mag fan for about 10 years. This summer I purchased a Savage BA 10 in 6.5 Creedmoor to use as a practice rifle and ended up falling in love with this cartridge. I'm using the Berger 140 VLD, 41 grains H414 @ 2680 fps, and maintaining .5 MOA out to 750 yards. I used this rifle in Colorado's second rifle season and was very pleased with it and the 140 VLD's performance. I shot a bull elk at 200 yards placing the round just behind the shoulder. Bull ran about 100 yards down hill. I was surprised to see complete penetration, small pencil hole going in and about 1.5" exit. Hit rib going in and between two on the exit. Might just have to pick up a 6.5x284 next. [/QUOTE]
