[QUOTE="7mmRHB, post: 250727, member: 3584"] Roy, I've been fireforming my brass for my 7mmRHB with 168 bergers @ 3280fps in a 28" 1 in 8.2" twist 5R Rock bbl with no apparent jacket problems. It's not a top end load by any means,( 77.2 grs RL 25 ) but the accuracy is good enough to whack our 1145yd gong consistantly even though the bbl twist is way to fast for the 168s. I did shoot some 189 Cauterucios that showed real promise accuracy wise but I haven't shot them into anything to see how they'll perform. The BC was up there ( .825 ) at our elevation, 5000ft so I'm hoping they will perform on Game !! The 180 JLKs are built on J4 jackets from Berger. They are a higher BC and are very accurate in the guns I have dealt with. I guess I better get out and do some more shooting and testing so ol' GG can relax a little. I seem to test his patience at times !! LOL ----- RHB [/QUOTE]
