[QUOTE="Buffalobob, post: 208938, member: 8"] The Hornady Loading manual lists the loads for the 162 HPBT with IMR 4350 for the 7mm Wby. There is no need to guess. You are definitely under 2800 fps. As far as shot placement on a moving whitetail in the woods shooting offhand, that is about as good as I can do. I never claim to be a great shot so I just do the best I can and that is about the best I can do. A well constructed bullet provides forgiveness on shot placement. That is why I threw away all the 162 HPBTs, I could not keep them from drifting into the shoulder bones of elk at 1100 yards when the evening thermal winds started up. But if you are better than me that is fine. Many people are. I shot with a guy on Sunday who was and I was happy for him. [/QUOTE]
