[QUOTE="wildcat455, post: 1475401, member: 102653"] I’m not running the numbers either, but I believe the 7mm will have greater energy at reasonable hunting ranges, due to the increased weight of projectile, and similar speed. That is what I suspect made it the preferred cartridge. I don’t think the 264 will ever be a 7 Mag. No more than I think the 7 Mag will ever be a 300 Mag. But I think the latest heavy for caliber bullets for the 264 will aid in making the 264 and other 6.5mm cartridges more viable, and improve their popularity. It was never my intent to get into a “which is better” because that is subjective. As others have said, shoot what makes you happy. Thank you for the clarification. [/QUOTE]
