WTB 264 Win Mag or 7mag Sendero but ? rifle twist rates

The JLK 130gr VLD with zero at 300 yards is 3.5 inches high at mid range and is at 2788 fps ad 2243 ft lbs of energy with time of flight of 0.299. At 400 yards it is 7.8 inches low. Which is still good for elk. When I look at the same weight for the 7mm RM the 130 gr bullets are close to same muzzle fps but my 160gr is 300fps faster. But the 264 has less recoil which I like.
 
I am using the PPSN which is not a round nose as years ago I tried the Hornady 160gr round nose and it did not perform well. Here is a like to the information on the 160gr PPSN. In Europe the use it for moose. If zero is 300 yards it is 3.6 inches high at mid range and 8.2 low at 400 yards. At 300 yards it is 2704fps and 2597 ft lbs of energy and time of flight to 300 yards if 0.303 seconds which is plenty good for elk.
