[QUOTE="RH300UM, post: 1561049, member: 12469"] I jump in the mix on this. 2 animals(muley elk) with 212 ELD’s from a 300wm. Deer 240 yards looking straight at us. Shot hit square between shoulders. Deer landed on its back dead. Elk 423 yards. Broadside. Double lung. Took another one to put him down. Elk was dead with first shot but heading down into the nasty bottom. In 7mm I’ve killed a lot of animals. Deer and elk. 2 bullets used Berger 180 hybrids and 180 Hornady ELD M. Both where used in 2 different rifles. 7 saum and a 7/338 Norma mag improved. Saum velocity was a shade over 3000fps at the muzzle. The 7/338 improved was 3250 at the muzzle. Animals were taken from 120 yards out to 1k+yards with both rifles. Never had any issues with either bullet. My only problem was nailing the BC on the ELDM past 1k. It still eludes me. So I lean towards the Berger 180 hybrids My 2 cents [/QUOTE]
