[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1224455, member: 12995"] JE, we normally agree on pretty much everything, but I have to disagree with what bullet weights you say are optimal for those cartridges... In my experiences with those 3, and in my opinion based on those experiences, the bullet weights are slightly off. The 7mmRM also excels with the 160-180gr bullets with a 26" barrel. I'm getting ~3,115 fps MV with a 168 VLD out of one of mine. Also, I'd say the STW is perfect for the 180-195's. I shoot the 180 Hybrids around 3,000-3,100 fps MV. Which I must say is pretty efficient given that I'm only using around 72 grains of powder. The RUM would be best with 195+ bullets. But this is all just my opinion. [/QUOTE]
