[QUOTE="trebark, post: 1672202, member: 19172"] Pet load in my 7saum is with the berger 180hybrid (GREAT bullet), 62grains of RL26. I get 3000fps with this load out of a 28" barrel. My rifle is built long action, so I can seat the bullets out pretty far. An earlier comment recommended the 168hybrid. It is also a great bullet and I have loaded them in my 280Rem with great results. The decision maker on which bullet to choose is the distance at which you intend to engage targets. If it's inside 800 yards, the 168 is a good choice. As the distances get longer though, the BC of the 180 really starts to shine. As an anecdote, I made a first round hit on a 12" stone at 2125 yards using the 180s. [/QUOTE]
