[QUOTE="VinceMule, post: 2850653, member: 122164"] I know of two eland and two Kudu that were taken one shot each, DRT with the 162 SST with a MV at 3150 ranges to 350 yards. I have never liked the idea of shooting through elk shoulders, my shots were quartering broadside, to and fro. I took cows with 243 and 100g Partitions, close range. With the history of the 7mm 180g ELDM blowing up, I would have to question their value over 2800 fps, but they have worked fine for me at 2700 fps out of a long barrel 280, 8.75" twist. [/QUOTE]
