[QUOTE="7mmRUM, post: 1738291, member: 24195"] My calculator says at 1000 yards that load will have 1086 ft*lbs and be traveling 1869fps. That can kill anything if it hits right, but it seems a bit slow for my tastes. However, Berger says 1800fps will open the VLDs, so I'm sure you could make it work. It that case shooting through the shoulder might be a good plan for long shots to help the bullet expand. You might want to aim a bit farther back if one steps out in front of you at 30 yards.
