[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 501862, member: 11717"] Fair enough Greg, If you go back to my previous post, you will see I was indeed referencing the Hodgdon online manual just to keep things "honest" If you check the 7 RM 162 gr data, you will see the highest velocity for the 160-162 range is 2963 using Retumbo. If you check the 300 WM data under 200 gr you will see it pushes a 200 NP 2962. Same velocity, 38 gr difference. I don't have a 300 WM, but I do have a 300 WSM (WM equivalent or slightly less) and a 7 RM, both 24" barrels. My personal experience in these cartridges is that I can push a 160 gr bullet 3000 fps (tops) out of the 7 and with the WSM I can push a 180 gr bullet (20 gr heavier) 3200 fps (200 fps faster). That's as real as I can get it. I welcome keeping the debate honest. [/QUOTE]
