FWIW, I have a LH 7 WSM Savage Model 16. It has a 26 inch 1:9 tube from same. With the 180 VLDs, I get 3030 fps with 68 grains of Ramshot Magnum. Now I'm getting 2970 with 62.5 grains of Re 25. I actually have to throttle down this rifle. It has proven to be more accurate than I had hoped, too. One of my lessons has been that, if you want to push a 180 grains over 3000 fps in a hunting rifle, you need a scope with good eye relief ...
Only 6.4 Mils of come up needed at 1K yards.
