[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 672475, member: 30902"] The[URL="http://www.hornady.com/store/7mm-.284-154-gr-InterBond/"] Hornady Interbond 154gr has a BC of .525 [/URL]and opens well enough to leave a 2" hole in a deer or coyote at 1000yds. It also retains enough of its weight to drive completely through both shoulders at the same range. [URL="http://www.hornady.com/store/7mm-.284-162-gr-SST/"] The 162gr SST has a BC of .550 [/URL]and will do the same with even greater precision and energy on target while still opening adequately and retaining enough mass to ensure full penetration. I have less experience with the [URL="http://www.swiftbullets.com/scirocco/rifle-bullets/7mm-284-caliber/7mm-284-caliber-150-grain-scii.html"]Swift Sirocco but so far the 150gr [/URL]with it's .515 BC is performing very well for me as well. If one has a desire to move up to the bullets you are talking about it will require a custom barrel as the factory rifle makers are not chambering 7mm Mag's with enough twist to stabilize them.
