To start it off I am having a 7mm RM built and should be done very soon. My problem is in picking the right bullet. The gun is being throated for 168 bergers but I am considering using a different bullet. I will be hunting whitetails and bears mainly with this gun and have hopes to hunt elk with it as well. So where I hunt whitetails it is not always it is not always going to be a long shot I could end up shooting them as close as 50 yards, and possible running through brush; that is the main reason why I am being hesitant about shooting the 168 bergers and using 160 Accubonds. Now for the other end of things, Bear hunting in idaho can give a very far shot so I need a bullet that I can reach out and touch them with and I am not sure what the max effective range of the accubonds would be. Also I am not a fan of taking two kinds of ammo with me in the field.
