[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 985730, member: 48043"] well, from Nosler's data they show 85.0 7828 to start and 89.0 7828 as top load using their 140 grain offerings in the 7rum. They list top load at 3459 fps.... I've roasted a few critters with 140's doing 3400+ fps out of a 7rum or 7stw but the farther your range, the better the heavy pills are. If you don't plan on going over 500 yards, use the 140 if it's stout enough for you, but if you plan on stepping out from mid range, go with a 175-180 and rl25, rl33, rl50, retumbo, 50bmg, etc.. The 160's would be a good middle ground, but something like rl25, rl33, or retumbo will push them better than rl22 or 7828. [/QUOTE]
