[QUOTE="Derek M., post: 866561, member: 2693"] I don't disagree with you but the whole argument is problematic in that the premise relies on what each cartridge WILL do, not necessarily what it will do [b]with precision and satisfactory accuracy[/b]. Case in point: I have a 7 SAUM and a 300 SAUM, all else identical in every way possible, take the bullets you posed, the 215 and 180 respectively. If everything goes right and I want to shoot a target at 1000 yards, you are saying the 300 wins. Probably true, I don't know, never did the test. But what if the best accuracy comes from the slower speed on the 300/215 combo? Losing 200fps or more? But the 7mm/180 combo shows supreme accuracy at the top velocity achievable....seems to me the 7 is going to win now. All of the repeated debates on this issue seems to fall on best case scenarios day in and day out. Unfortunately, I haven't experienced this to be reality. But I'm not that experienced either.
