[QUOTE="Franko21, post: 2622354, member: 108629"] I have been doing a lot of reading and have a couple of questions I am hopoing that people can chime in on: Question 1 - How do you choose the right projectile weight? Is a 7mm RM shooting a 100 gr monolithic at 3500fps good for everything (deer, hogs, elk, etc.) or at some point do you need to step up to a heaver projectile? Question 2 - If you do have to go to a heavier projectile what factors do you use to decide the right weight? Question 3 - Does caliber matter? Is there going to be an appreciable difference in terminal performance between a 130 gr 6.5mm projectile going 3100 fps vs a .308 caliber 135gr projectile going 3100fps? Thanks for reading this.
