[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 1580342, member: 7999"] The last 2 replies ate right on the money. There is certainly nothing wrong with going with the heavier bullets. Much of the decision is personal preference. I personally really like the 143g Hammer Hunter in the 7mm's. The higher vel with decent bc is tough to beat out to 700-800y. The higher impact vel at ranges less than that out perform the heavier slower bullets. Same for the creed. Lots of folks running the 124g Hammer Hunter very well in the 2900' for vel, depending on barrel length. When we designed the 110g Hammer Hunter We did have the creed in mind. Again higher impact vel out to 400y. Really not a wrong answer here as long as the minimum twist rates are adhered to. [/QUOTE]
