[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 559985, member: 2736"] I think your numbers are high. The listed maximum velocities for the 168 grain bullets are; Saum= 2900 , WSM=2900 , Rem Mag =2900 , STW= 3000 and just over 3200 for the 7 RUM. I recomend 1500 ft/lbs for Elk size game and 1000 ft/lbs for dear size game. so where your bullet drops to those energy's is the limit as long as the accuracy is there. if you want to use a 33'' blank you will end up with around 32.6'' finished I would recomend the 7 RUM if you cut it back to 26" or 28" the Saum will be OK and be at optimum length for a short mag In my opinion.
