So, i was thinking, everyone seems to praise the 6mm BR. And the 30 BR, but for some reason, the 7mm BR died a quick death. I made up some predicted velocities (just added 100 fps to what the pistol guys got with theirs) and inputed data for a 168 grain SMK into JBM ballistics. It does very well. Anyone have any thoughts on this? I think it would make a great low recoil gun out to 1000 yards.

Just thinking :)

Yds Mils Inches Velocity
100 -0.0 -0.0 2097.7

300 -1.8 -19.6 1894.7
400 -3.0 -43.4 1796.6
500 -4.3 -78.0 1701.1
600 -5.8 -124.7 1607.8
700 -7.3 -184.8 1516.8
800 -9.0 -260.0 1428.1
