[QUOTE="reed mosser, post: 74305, member: 1589"] 7mm ar great for long range they give you a little variety, speed, B.C, and the right bullet weights for most hunting conditions. You aren't going to find a 7mm that will give you 5000 rounds of barrel life and shoot the 200's at a resonable speed. The 7 wsm is a good round and will drive all bullets up to 180's in a 1-9 twist. With the 200 grain wildcat bullets I am guessing you will need a 1-8 twist or faster. Also you will need at least a 7 STW, 7 ultra mag, 7 ultra mag improved to push the 200 over 3000 FPS. If you want to shoot the 200 gr wildcat you will have to set that barrel up for that bullet. IT will need the right twist and a very long throat. also the 7 stw and 7 ultra are very hard on barrels. If you want to play you have to pay. No easy answers when it comes to long range. Hope this helps [/QUOTE]
