Good morning
A couple of months ago or so I had some loyalty points at Sportsmans Warehouse I had to use or loose them, and I used them on some factory ammo, 7mm Rem Mag Federal Premium with the 168gr Berger Hybrid Hunter.
I needed some powder but they didn't have what I needed so I got a few boxes of this ammo instead, figured I can try out the performance of the Bergers and use the brass to reload.
If my rifle likes the ammo I'll be using it for Coues this coming fall. Now coues are small, thin skinned and light boned, and this bullet will work with behind the shoulder and shoulder shots.
So my question is, is this bullet good for both shot options on Mulies and most importantly Elk or is it too soft and might fail to penetrate the shoulder of an Elk?
Thank you in advance and stay safe.
