[QUOTE="Marble, post: 1226132, member: 51354"] My experience with the 7mm and Elk is all with the 150 grain Sirocco. I use RL22 slightly above max published load. It's accurate in any 7mm I've loaded for (about 5) and generally shoots well at the higher velocities. I have never had the bullet do excess damage. I lost one cow from the gun about 7 years ago. I shot poorly and the result was a wounded animal. Other than that, I had never separated or fell apart even after hitting the spine from the base of the skull to middle of the back. The other one a good friend uses is the Nosler 160 AB. I do not know his load info but he's killed Elk with it for many many years. [/QUOTE]
