[QUOTE="Darryl Cassel, post: 2171, member: 34"] Speed At those velocities, you probably won't find the consistant, accurate loads your looking for. If you dropped back 150 to 200 FPS, you might just find it. That's the problem with most calibers and especially overbore calibers. The speed kills accuracy in them too. I can drive the 7/300 Weatherby faster at the expense of downrange accuracy. At 3250 FPS with the 168 MK it works real well. The straight 7mm Mag will get to that speed when using H4831 and 168 Gr MK also. That was a favorite loading for the 7mm Mags at Williamsport, years ago. The 7/300 Weatherby shoots real well with 87 gr of H870 or WC 872 and the 168 Gr Sierra MK Take care and hope you find the accuracy loading. DC [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img] [/QUOTE]
