7Stw. I like your results with the 145 lrx bullets and was wondering what you thought of that bullet and load on whitetail out to say 600-900 yards or would say the 168grn be better at those distances ? I'm a speed freek and like flat trajectory but not sure if 145grn is enough at those longer distances. What do you think ? Yes I'm speaking of a
7mm Stw.
Well, I to am speed demon of sorts myself. That being said, speed does kill, IF YOU HAVE THE RIGHT BULLET!!!!!!! I believe that I have a bullet that will strike like lightning , penetrate, pass through, and DRT. I am yet to drop the hammer on game with it, but will soon.
I got a interesting bit of info from " Barnesuser", and his closing comment was that the bullet doesnt run out of fatal energy until 1000 yards. With these barnes bullets, you must have a certain speed to to enable it to open up. He assured me that out to 1000 yards, it would do it's thing. That's impressive to me, but I'm not a 1000 yrd shooter. Maybe from a perfect bench, and front rest, but not my usual setup in the field where I hunt. I do have a spot that the shot may be 650 or so.
