I killed my first Antelope with a 154 gr Hornady out of a 7mm Rem Mag.

OK,great,I LOVE the 160 gr NP! JSTUART,and what's your point. I was thinking that a model 21 would be a better fit for an enthusiast...the new CZ rifles just leave me cold. This is my 3rd CZ and they all fit me real well. Owned a .308 win,.416 Rigby and now a 7x57. Never even SEEN a Model 21 here where I live.

We are even, I have never seen a .416 here either! Lot of model 2, 5, 1, and ZKW 465...21/22 and Zg47 are rare as hen's teeth here as well, they take a lot of work to locate. But worth it.
These are my opinions, feel free to disagree.

I have 2 boxes of Hornady 175gr. Interlocs in my stash. I'm gonna try a few in my 7.08 Rem 700.
Couldn't hurt, right?

Well I like the 160 gr NP the best and that's all that I've used since in any 7mm Mag. Killed Antelope,Deer and Elk with them,they all died.

I am going to slink away in shame as I have been using 150gr corelokt's...on rabbits. Used a 175 gr Rem on a jackrabbit from the CZ. GRAPHIC! Entrance at about 100 yds. Exit. No shame in using it,actually very good practice for hunting big game.

There seems to be a theme here,think you like 175's in a 7mm Mauser.
