[QUOTE="Len Backus, post: 20853, member: 1"] I will be using Hornady's A-Max, 162 grain in 7mm, this year on my Dall sheep hunt and for mule and whitetail and Coues deer. I am getting 1/2 moa (vertical)out to 700 yards with it in my newly remodeled Tikka rifle. The ballistic coefficient is high at .625 and I feel this must be the key to long range hunting accuracy and minimizing the effect of wind estimation errors. In switching over from last year's 140 grain Ballistic Tip, wind drift should be reduced by about one-fourth. Does anyone have any experience with this bullet? Will it's expansion perform about like the Matchking? [/QUOTE]
