[QUOTE="goodgrouper, post: 151825, member: 2852"] Perhaps Uncle B didn't see your question so I will answer for him. Most likely, he will be using his custom 7mm BSM otherwise known as a 7mm-270 wsm. Kirby built it for him for a deer hunt awhile back on a Sako action with a custom barrel (I forget which one) and a hunter weight Mcmillan stock. We originally worked up a load for 160 grain accubonds which shot fairly well and very quick but last Saturday, Uncle B decided to try some 180 grain Bergers in it. Well, they shot at over 2850 fps, had a standard deviation of 3, had a wide node with low sd's on either side, and put 3 shots into a .216" group at 100 yards in a dirty 8 mph wind! BINGO! Sheep country is too nasty to be packin a 52# gun around in, but if we hunt by boat, maybe it would be an option. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] [/QUOTE]
