Is there a write up somewhere explaining the powders used, etc? I don't want to derail this thread too much.
I ahoot the 195 berger vld hunter in my 28 nosler. Shoots about .25 moa and performed beautifully in africa in nov on 3 animals out to 568 yds on 1600 lb eland bull, 250 on big roan bull and 35 yds on big bushpig. Need a pretty fast twist like 1 in 8.5 in. The 195 really doesnt work well on your short mags. Takes too much space unless you use a long reciever and seat bullets way out. Ultra mag, dakota 7 and lazzeroni, weatherby would all do well, no one besr, but foe me the 28 is gr8, and i own at least one each of the others i mentioned. Good luck! Goid shooting!Hey y'all I'm kinda new to shooting really far. I got a 6.5 PRC right now but I'm not really happy with the rifle and I was looking at getting a new one. I really like 7mm (Especially the 195gr EOL) I'm just curious what cartridge I should shoot. It's going to be a long range target gun (around a 1000) and my elk rifle. Any recommendations for cartridges or rifles? I was considering building one but I'm hesitant because I don't really know what I'm doing. (I was looking at 28 Nosler but the brass is expensive and I'm not quite sure if I need that much rifle)
Just sold my 7-300 reamer a few months ago to a member here. He's had great luck and so did I. I'm a 28nos guy so there was no reason to have both.Any thoughts on the 7mm-300Win Mag?? Looks like it'll do or will be close to doing what you want OP

Mike at gun works gave me the load specs and it works very nicely on my 7mm with 168 berger and retumbo powder
