[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 1152440, member: 5219"] Three Remington rifles all in 7 Rem mag had good results with the 168 Berger classic hunter bullets and Retumbo. These rifles have taken deer, elk and antelope. In fact Joe remarked he had never seen a faster death when he shot his elk with this bullet, but Joe had never used a Berger before. The classic hybrid is very seating depth friendly, none of these Remingtons required any seating depth changes. All were loaded so bullet fit and fed from magazine without contacting the rifling. Start at 70 gr of Retumbo and work up to find most accurate load. Joe's rifle liked 72.5 gr for 3115 fps. My rifle liked 73 gr for velocity of 3121. James's rifle liked 71 gr for 3079 fps. All rifles used Rem brass and federal 215 primers. [/QUOTE]
