Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Ask The Gunwriters Shot of a lifetime - 7mm Magnum Bullet

Roy,

Here are the drift numbers I got with the Berger program at 35 degrees F., 8000' above sea level, 500 yards, with a 10-mph wind at right angles to the bore:

160 Partition, 3100 fps: 13.24"
160 AccuBond, 3100 fps: 11.68"
150 ABLR, 3200 fps: 9.59"
168 ABLR, 3000 fps: 9.71"

Just for fun, I also ran these:
175 Partition, 2900 fps: 13.11"
175 ABLR, 2900 fps: 9.83"

Now, we can obviously quibble about muzzle velocities, and rifling twist can also affect BC somewhat.
