[QUOTE="4mesh063, post: 32165, member: 941"] As JB said and I pointed out before. The 7mmWSM is a smokin cartridge that would fit your bill well. If you wanted to shoot the lighter bullet for a while, the 168's generally will outperform the 30 cals up to 210 and will just smoke them in velocity. I see both regularly and personally shoot a 30 WS. The 7 is flatter, faster and I think is a better capacity for the bullet it shoots. All the same, I'm not changing now or later. I have 30's. I'm also not killing stuff with them far away. A 7 in a 30" gun, will give you 3100fps easily from a 168 in the cold weather. I wouldn't go that far in summer. The 168 has a bc around 650 so it's gonna keep truckin along pretty well. If the 30 held about 5 more grains, it'd do well with the 210 also. (for hunting that is). [/QUOTE]
