[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1513060, member: 30902"] One more. After more than four decades shooting them I'd say the 7's are all at their best if you stick to the 150-170gr classes of bullets. Heavier than that and you're just giving up so much velocity that the flat shooting part of the equation goes out pretty quickly. The only exception to this rule above is if you're seriously building the gun for 800-1200yds or farther work at which time the higher BC becomes much more of a priority and velocity pretty well comes in about third to wind resistance and reduced drop.
