[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 2342759, member: 87243"] 2850 with a 175 in a 26" 7 mag? I DO reload, not just shoot factory ammo......ha ha The last 3 26" 7 mags I loaded 175's to 180's for were at 2975 to 3080 for their accuracy load, using Retumbo, H1000 and RL26. As stated, the 20" barrel 7 max I am loading for is shooting 175's at 2906. Anyway. The SMALLEST of the 3 cartridges we are considering will have around 1400 ft-lbs and be going around 1900 fps at 1000, under the worst case scenario for my typical shooting conditions. That is with loads out of a 20" barrel with said smallest cartridge and proven loads. The purpose for going with a bigger cartridge would be to get a fatter margin from the "minimum" and have better external ballistics. I liked this thread better when it was ending with memes.....lol [/QUOTE]
