[QUOTE="MachV, post: 686289, member: 93"] Never had the SST shoot best out of any rifle but pickt up some 162 grain SuperPerformance loads for the 7 mag last year. They shot alright but I hit a goat @ 45 yards broadside throught the boiler room, I was kinda laughing figured it would blow a big hole in him and blow him off his feet=WRONG he took off like I had missed......Wich I did with the second shot but the third took out his back hocks and he crawled 150 yards farther(downhill) before I could get reloaded and finish him off. The first shot went through both lungs without hitting a rib and it lookt like I had hit him with a target arrow!! The other two guys with me where useing 154 grain reloads and thier goats droped in thier track with off shoulder hits. For goats and deer I still prefer the 160 grain partition that also works for elk and they shoot great out to 600 yards in the old 7mag.....when I take the time to reload :rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
