[/quote] Would you fret the 162 at any of those ranges? [/quote]
I might!!! I shot a spike elk last year with my 708 AI muzzle velocity of 2830. shot it at 260 yards velocity at that range was 2457, hit behind the shoulder the 162 weighed 65.2 grains. hit one rib on the way in.
Hard to say what might of happened if I was using my 7 WSM with the 162s at a muzzle velocity of 3200 and shot it on the shoulder at lets say 75 yards and it was a big heavy bull. More testing needed for sure.
