[QUOTE="AnesthesiaMD, post: 2579384, member: 120948"] My elk rifle is a 7 saum. Gunwerks Magnus stock and 20” proof barrel. I run a suppressor 99% of the time. I have two loads for it. One is a 168 Berger and the other is a 143 hammer hunter. The 143 hammer load anchored an elk last year from a short 200 yards but I would feel confident out to 500 with that setup. I am getting close to 2900 fps with the 168 berger and h1000 and 3100+ with the 143 hammer hunter and h4350. (Disclaimer is fine brass now bc it takes a while. I was on the backorder list for 9 months from creedmoor sports before I got my last 200 pieces of ADG). I also just finished a 6.5 saum which is pretty awesome too. They are fun cartridges that are a great balance of recoil and energy on target. By the way my 13 year old son handles the 7 saum well and calls it “his gun” to give you an idea how easy it is to shoot. [/QUOTE]
