[QUOTE="raktrak, post: 277098, member: 13054"] I use a 160 gr Sierra HP pushed by 80.4 grs of H-1000 out of a 26" tube. I never had a Whitetail take a step after being shot. My longest kill to date is 450 yds. because of where I hunt. I get about 3050 fps out of this load. I have a load with 130 gr Sierra bullet pushed by 85 grs H-1000 that gives 3350 fps. I shoot the loads that my rifle tells me is a sweet spot load. Most of my friends like a 139 gr Hornady interlock at max in their STW's. That yields about 3325 fps. So whats your preference? The STW will shoot flat flat flat, if you need it to, or perform like the standard 7mm mag. The deer hate it.:) [/QUOTE]
