[QUOTE="Alibiiv, post: 1526448, member: 69192"] I haven't had a whole lot of experience with the 7mm ReMag, however I have an Encore, 28 inch, ProHunter barrel in 7mm RemMag. It really likes the Nosler 140gr Accubonds; 5 shot ragged hole at 100yds.This wasn't a load that I tailored or worked up for this rifle, it was something that I had powder for, and the load was one-grain under the max load from the manual. I haven't shot Barnes bullets in the 7mm RemMag, and haven't played with the 7mm RemMag past 100yds. I have had experience with the Barnes bullets in my 35 Whelen and .358 Winchester. With 225 gr Bares TSX bullets in the Whelen it is okay out to 100yds (1-1 1/2 inches), however it likes Sierra 225gr BT Gamekings out to 300yds. I shoot the Barnes 200gr TTSX in the .358 Winchester and can say the same with this caliber also. I black bear hunt in Maine, so the shots are up close, and what I can say up close is that the Barnes bullets are by far my first choice, with Accubonds being a second choice if I cannot get the Barnes bullets. All the bear that I have shot with the TTX and TTSX have been "bang-thump" , total pass throughs with large exit holes. [/QUOTE]
