This will be for 180 gr mostly with a side of 195 gr, if I get the itch. I'm leaning towards a long action for this build as it was suggested to me by a friend. So that said, what do you guys have ? What bullet are you using and what twist ? Thanks in advance ! TB, CWD and Covid-19 , free so far.....

When time allows, I may try some 160 class bullets this summer. Till then I'm looking for info to launch big sleek 7mm bullets without burning big spoonfuls of powder at a time.

The 280 boasts better brass,less bullschit and an extry round in the belly,as an absolute minimum. Hint. Go 7-08 Fieldcraft,180 ELD's,Re-17 in Alpha brass and never fhuqking look back.

It's my carry rifle, goat rifle, whatever abuse rifle. In this guise, the short action makes sense as it shaves an ounce or two off the package. Drops 140's and 160's into little 3/4" groups - plenty good for a lightweight mountain rifle. I figure if you are loading 180's or 190's you've got to be looking at a long ranger. 28" bbl, heavy barrel, drive for max velocity in a long tube. Weight's probably not the same criteria I used. So, what do you want to do with it? Hunt Africa while you can

I practice with my 6x47L out to 750 and would like more bullet for beyond that. Elk someday ...... Last edited by mibowhunter; 04/11/19. TB, CWD and Covid-19 , free so far.....
