[QUOTE="yobuck, post: 2494123, member: 12443"] Well i dont believe i said that they dont work. I said they only work at least well to a point. Mind you i own them as well, and they have been responsible for more long range kills at our camp than the others have. But if your going to be hunting at locations that could offer say an 800 yard shot over there, but by looking at that hill over there it could be much further, then its best to be equipted for the much further shot with our cartridge choice. As for them walking away after being hit, ive seen that happen with 338s also, but they didnt walk very far before dieing. And weve had them walk when hit with other cartridges as well. And while were at it with the 7mms, theres a big difference between the ones sending a 160 class bullet at about 3000 fps and ones sending the same bullet at 3400. And another big difference between those and one that can send a 200 grain at that speed. You just cant kill what you dont hit, and when were talking 1300 yds or further, you will hit it easier with the larger bullets. And thats not just an opinion. [/QUOTE]
