[QUOTE="kiwi3006, post: 398030, member: 8927"] I use them in my 7mm mag at 3087 fps. The closest I have used them is a feral goat at 240 (?) yds. Bullet was in the ribcage low and behind the front leg, bullet exited ok, heart very damaged. Impact velocity would have been 2726 fps. With your starting load of 2805 you will be at this velocity about 55 -60 yds away. The bullet will get into the chest ok, may or may not exit depending on exact spot ie did you hit the front leg/shoulder etc. On a ribcage shot I would expect no problems. I set my 7mm mag up to use 160 accubond inside of 300 yds and the berger past 300 yds. I zero with the berger and then see where the accubond hits. I am lucky that the 100 yd zeros are the same.
