Hello,
I'm hoping to get my first elk this fall out west. My buddy lives out there and he swears by the ELDM and Berger bullets. THIS POST IS NOT ABOUT BULLET CHOICES
I am using my 7PRC, and my load development time this summer was cut short with some family stuff that came up. Anyway, I am using CCI 250 primers, ADG brass, 180gr ELDM, and H1000 powder. I loaded 20 thousands off the lands and my 66.5gr powder load shot .3" groups. my velocity was 2847.8 fps
Should I be trying to get more velocity? Or stick to this load due to the accuracy?
What range does 2848fps get for me ek sized game? I am capped at 700 yards because that's as far as I can practice.
