[QUOTE="davkrat, post: 515404, member: 6452"] I'd take a look at the ETips if your gun likes them. Good BC for weight and should have plenty of penetration and expansion at that range. 500-600 is about my max imposed range as well. I don't really go looking to take shots on game at that range but it's nice to know you've practiced for them and are prepared if you had too. There's plenty of evidence out there that a 7mm Mag could easily get out a couple hundred yards further with accurate loads and a proper bullet. Seems once you get past 600 yards or so everything gets exponentially more expensive. Moderately priced factory guns with a little tweaking, mid level scopes, basic rangefinders, etc. can easily get you to 500-600 yards. [/QUOTE]
