[QUOTE="ksubuck, post: 1139793, member: 64792"] My original hunting load used the 160 Accubonds running around 3100fps over 7828. Preferred it to the 140 Accubonds. I save them for the 7mm Rem Mag. I feel that the heaviest bullet I can sling as close to 3000fps as possible gives me the best long range outcome. The Accubonds run out of steam around 800 yards, and the 180 VLD at 1100. At these ranges, you will start dropping below 1000 ft/lbs energy. Not saying you can't kill beyond these ranges, but it will be akin to hunting big game with a 223 at 50 yards. No telling how far they will run... [/QUOTE]
