[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 844128, member: 11717"] Baloney.... the above is what Jeff was referring to. I own two 7 RM's and have loaded for them and used one of them to hunt with for 15 years until I burned the barrel out, armchair breath. I shot lot's of critters with including elk. Then I went out and bought a 300 Mag. Considering my max velocities (and I'm a red line kinda guy) using Retumbo and RL17 pushing 160 AB's were 3100 and 3150 in a 24" barrel. For you to be pushing 180's to 3100, you must have been using a really long barrel and really pushing that pressure curve. That said, Jeff pushed 215's @ 3050 in his 28" WM which have a greater BC and weight than 180's. So just how do you make that statement? [/QUOTE]
