7mm Creedmoor … my new favorite. 9 pointer down

7mm Creedmoor did me good!

Well, my 7mm Creedmoor did a great job. 120 grain Nosler,BT @3237 FPS.
Got this buck at 352 yards. I dialed for 350 ,but didn't quite hold enough for wind. It shot a little farther forward than I would have liked, but I can't complain …it went 15 yards plowing his nose the whole way. What is interesting is it looked like someone had shot at it with an arrow and shot low because it had a big gash on his chest. I'm actually really thankful I got it because who knows what might've happened to him. He could've got infected, or he might've had a really bad winter and died.

How does that cartridge design and performance differ from 7/08?
Im not familiar with the CM case.
Good Shooting !

Shorter case, sharper shoulder, I use SRP. This load was with leverevolution at 41.7g

Testing with 150 & 160 ish grain bullets now.

Lever powder puts the turbos on a 308 Win!

That is nice!

Awesome, curious how long that gash has been there? Public land?
