[QUOTE="TwoMore, post: 1319281, member: 95166"] tough to beat a 160 AB in the 7 RUM, I shoot a 168 VLD in one of my 7rums because thats the only thing it will shoot lol but it has done well at any range . I think for me, if I use a lead core jacketed bullet at that velocity I want something close to .300 sectional density for good penetration, so I stick with the 160+ grainers . I tried the 180 grainers and they shot decent but when I added up the numbers I chose to use the 168 , recoil had a little factor in there to because I have two sons that shoot that rifle also. most of the time I get pass through's unless it is a heavy quartering shot, but usually drops them then.
