[QUOTE="Thewildedge, post: 454954, member: 29450"] I have a 7mm rem mag that favors a 162 grn Hornady BTSP Interloc leaving the muzzle at 2800 fps. Hornadys website still shows almost 1500 lbs energy at 500 yds. Has anyone any input on these bullets at 500 & 600 yds hunting Deer and elk ? What should be the minimum amount of energy left at impact to adequately kill with a well placed shot ? This load has worked well previously up to 300 yds but I am seeing alot of animals past this and want to work this rifle up to be able to take them. Thanks for your time to read this and hopefully, helpful answers. Jack [/QUOTE]
