[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 1442149, member: 87243"] My cousin has a 7rm that I loaded for. 180 Berger's, Reloder 26 going 3015 fps. Worked up to 3070 fps, best accuracy was at 3010-3035. Extremely accurate, shoots in the .3's out of his Remington 700 long range. last year we killed 2 pronghorn, 2 elk, and 1 deer. One of the elk was at 578 yards and turned as he shot, it hit on the point of the shoulder and the bullet was in the off hind leg, just under the hide, literally penetrated through the entire length of a large cow elk, causing massive internal damage, dead on the spot. The other elk was at 520 yards, broadside through the heart, exit about 2", ran 20 yards down a steep hill and was dead. Deer was shot through the lungs at 150 yards, ran 50 yards and was dead. One of the pronghorn was hit through the lungs at 480 yards, dropped on the spot. Other one was hit through the heart at 740 yards, ran maybe 50 yards with a blood trail about 5' wide and was dead. On all occasions, the bullets performed flawlessly. You should have no problems. [/QUOTE]
