I suppose it wouldn’t hurt to try although I’m pretty happy with the 162’s. And, not much will shrug off a hit from a 160 class 7mm running 2950-3000 FPS I do like the job a 175 partition does on Black Bear up close though. Watched my buddy thump one with the 175 in a moderate 7 Rem Mag load about 2750 FPS. DRT.


Keep your powder dry and stay frosty my friends.
