[QUOTE="jshepherd61, post: 2280672, member: 93960"] I agree to some extent! I usually use a 168gr ABLR out of my 7mm STW running 3,452 fps or a 156gr EOL at 3,242 fps or a 142gr ABLR at 3,450fps out of my 26 Nosler. Personally I’m not a fan of over damaging the meat so I have stayed away from the heavier pills. My last four elk were taken over 1k. However this year I have a new toy 300 PRC built for the Volkswagen size pills so will be using either the 210gr ABLR or the 212gr ELDX both at 3,052 fps. Worked out great both have the same 200 yd zero. First time with a heavy bullet. If I get too much damage I’ll move back down next year. The main reason for the switch is I also have a bear 🐻 tag for the same unit same season. [/QUOTE]
