[QUOTE="Red Delicious, post: 1056919, member: 85735"] The twist rate is 1 in 9 so heaver isn't a problem from that stand point. While I hate to wound an animal I also hate to waste meat. I've seen what a 170 (ish) gr 7mm bullet does when it hits the far side shoulder blade of an Elk. I guess 3 quarters is better then none but if a hammer will do why swing a maul? On the other hand banging on something with a hammer all day when a maul is available isn't smart either. Just trying to find the best tool to use. Once I get the barrel back (tomorrow) and get the new stock finished I'll get out and start gathering data on different loads. I'm not married to Nosler either but have had great success with their bullets. Thanks Craig O. P.S. how's my math partner doing? [/QUOTE]
