The video says bang flop?

You say it went 800 yds before bedding?

I'm confused

Read my original post I in no way said why I ask north or south.
Greg is a stick lover and that's all it takes for me.

That's good because higbean needs all the help with hunting and shooting he can get. Greg can coach him up.

You have no clue of what you speak of, which is par for the course.

It got labeled wrong when submitting. That was the name for this one.

Oh and before I'm ridiculed for the shot call it was both shoulders not behind. I still say the 160 is a better choice between the two in a 7 mm rm.

LOL




YA a northern deer can weigh 300+ #. A southern deer will never weigh that 180 l# at most.
So bullet weigh would make a difference. Not to mention the BC on the 160 is way better.

Tanner the question was for the elk bear part but when they are on the hook jerk. But you guys are the most clever ever.


LoL

Nice goat buy the way.

If Tristan is scolding you bro, I got to hand it to you.

👍🏼

So of the 2 Bullets the op ask about in the cartridge stated what bullet would the fan club recommend. I say 160 but. You guys never stated anything about the question.

Out to 400 yards I'd shoot whichever shot best in my rifle. I've killed loads of game with both 140 and 160 AB's. I personally wouldn't want to trust a LR AB at close range (-100yds), and having witnessed big mule deer killed at 30 yds with a 140 AB (7STW) I would have no worries about the regular AB's at all.

Solid advice here.

It might be just me, but I think I'd rather chance drinking the water in Mexico than roll the dice in drinking the water in WA WEST.

whats wrong with the water in Mexico?

It is always entertaining to read the "expert advice" some like to post on these pages.

If the OP was asking about a .260 Rem, the 129 would be bullet of choice, possibly the 140 in a pinch. However, when someone asks about a 7Mag, suddenly anything short of a 140/160 grain won't kill a whitetail deer? When the heck did any deer- mule deer, whitetail, northern deer, southern deer, become bulletproof? Lots of guys I know kill elk, bears, even targets with 140's in the 7 mag and I've never known one to bounce off yet- but I guess it could still happen....

Anything in a 7Mag that shoots well- from 120 grains on up will kill any deer on earth at any reasonable range as long as the shot is placed properly. Go out and find a good load for your rifle and proceed to kill deer and other critters.

That would be implied. The question would be which one would you pick???. I would assume his rifle would shoot both bullets well. If one shoots much better that the other then its obviously the right pick. But all things in the accuracy dept. equal. The 160 with a higher bc would be a better choice. Not to mention the 160 would make the lb to grn ratio a perfect 1:1 in the south.

Bottom line the OP ask which one of two. In true campfire fashion I should have recommended a 6mm creedmoor and 105 hpbt.
Ps water is for making ice. Ice is for whiskey on the rocks.

It's a known fact that the bullets don't bounce off they are simply going to fast to expand properly. 😉

The campfire crew is so uptight you could not jackhammer a greased needle up their ass. Fun place to hang out. The genus factor is legendary.

It looks to me like Fred is a stick wannabe.

Far from it. How ever I do really love his work. LOL.

As usual you make almost no sense . The rifle will pick the bullet. Whichever shoots best will work fine. All this talk about northern deer, southern deer, mule deer, white tails, etc.... is nonsense. No deer on this planet or any other planet is going to stand up to a well placed shot from either bullet.
