[QUOTE="DJ Fergus, post: 1761611, member: 93895"] 150 ablr 7mm is advertised @ .546 g1. 147 6.5mm eld is another bullet I use. It's .696 g1. If the 162 eld 7mm could be successfully loaded in the 7mm-08, then it would be a very close race between the 147 in a 6.5 cm. 6.5 would still win but it would be very very close in wind drift. Vertical Tradjectory isn't much of an arguing point anymore. Most folks seem to keep blinders on when thinking about terminal performance and delayed kills. This is one of the arguing points of the 270 win as it was loaded in the old days with factory ammo nearing 3100fps with a 130 grain. Whether a person chooses to believe in hydrostatic shock or not, the results are undebatable for those who have witnessed the effects of many higher velocity kills. And for those who witness all the instant kill high shoulder shots on TV, I've done that myself with an old 35 Remington at 1800fps. If a person can pull off high shoulder shots every time, he should just build himself a 6mmbr to hunt with and be done with every other caliber. [/QUOTE]
