[QUOTE="dougduey, post: 1498368, member: 33159"] I shoot the 143 and 177 Hammer Hunter in my 7 STW. The 143 is doing 3500+ fps and the 177 is going 3000+ fps. According to Steve, you don’t get any real advantage from the 177 over the 143 until 800 yards(or it may be 1000 yards, I can’t remember exactly). I just wanted the heavier bullet for elk, otherwise the 143 is used for pronghorn and deer. They are devastating bullets on game. I just took a mountain goat on Kodiak Island 3 weeks ago with the 213 Hammer in my 338 Lapua. Made short work of a very tough animal. [/QUOTE]
