[QUOTE="ss7mm, post: 242701, member: 5"] I was supposed to have received some 180 gr. 7mm Bergers but that never materialized. I bought some instead and I also contacted Berger and inquired about the thick jacketed bullets. Tom Hime at Berger said the heavy jacketed bullets do not perform well on game and recommended the light jacketed bullets. He also indicated that the top fps range of the 180 light jacketed bullets would probably be around 3500 fps. I'd guess the heavy jacketed bullets would hold up but you may have to do another hog test and let us know how they do.;);) [/QUOTE]
