Yeah, she’s a good girl. Wicked funny, too. Her calling me a pussy while I’m on the phone trying to get out of going that night, was pretty funny... Then saying “Go make meat, cause we’re starving” cracked me up.

All I could say was “Don’t eat my Ruffles and Onion dip”.

I got home late to find a half a bag of Ruffles and enough dip to keep me happy.

She’s a keeper !

A couple years ago I had a rocky Mtn bighorn sheep tag, I had Zero intentions of shooting my ram on opening weekend because the rut was not in full swing and I had another month to get my ram...........after opening day one of my friends called as I had gone into town for supplies so I was in cell range.
He told me he was hunting the other side of the river with a client in a different unit than mine and found a giant ram that they wanted to take in the morning, only problem was that it was bedded in the cliff's at a range too far for his clients gun to reach...........can you come help in the morning and bring your rifle??????? Next morning the Ram was still in the same spot, I got my friends client laying prone on a flatbed trailer with my rifle and shooting rest, several of us had rangefinders and video cameras and spotting scopes.
It was 1200yds !!!!!!!!!!!! I dialed the scope in (he flinched big time on the first shot), second shot myself and others looking through spotting scopes could tell he was dead before he hit the ground............160gr Accubond favorite 7mm bullet ever. if it will kill a Ram at 1200yds an Elk is no problem in triple digits

I’d go with the 160 Accubond, though I honestly haven’t used the other two. I personally wouldn’t shoot to 700 on an elk. I haven’t practiced enough that far out, but to each their own. As Beav has shown, it can be done with the right equipment in front of the right rifleman.

I shoot the 160 AB in my 7mm AI with great results. I prefer to stay in the 400 yard range, but practice out to 600. I had two opportunities last fall, one at 300, the other at 410 both one shot kills through the shoulders.

So here is my question. I have a 7mm rem mag thats being a little more than fussy about what it shoots. And I'm very picky about how good a rifle should shoot. I demand .75 accuracy at 100 yards and .50 is better. Yesterday I finally loaded up some 168 grain classic hunter burgers. They shot extremely well while doing a test to find a accuracy node. 6 rounds Into a 1/2 inch group. Speed 2850. Never shot a game animal with a Berger. I usually shoot Barnes TTSX or the LRX. But this gun won't. So my shots for elk and mule deer range from in your face to farther than I will shoot. I listen to everyone say how good they work at long range. What happens when this 168 Berger hits an elk at 50 yards?? Will it slash?? I loaded ELDX in 7 mag for a friend and that is exactly what happened to him with that bullet. Velocity was 2800. Don't want that to happen.

That is probably not what exactly happened. It's just what he told you that exactly happened..... and you believed him....

huntsman22 if you are replying to my question---I was there when that bullet splashed. Without snow on the ground and a 1.5 mile tracking job I would not have known it splashed on the scapula. Is the scapula the best place to shoot an elk?? No but its what it was.

My son had that experience with the ELDX out of his 280AI on three deer at less than 100 yrds, MV about 2850 fps. All bullets came apart, he sent me pics of the recovered pieces of the bullets, but all deer died. He was not overly impressed.
He has gone back to 160 AB`s.

So far, I`ve nothing but good to say about the Bergers out of the 7`s.

What about the 145 or 168 gr LRX, from Barnes?

I can't get them to group good in my guns. I use a TTSx 150 with good results but this particular rifle is a picky pest

The 168 classic hunter is a great bullet and wouldn’t hesitate to use it on elk.
If you want to stick with monos have you looked at hammer bullets?

I have 2 Rifles that I shoot hammers in. They don't shoot good in this particular rifle. I was worried I couldn't find any burgers and need more to sight in and range check. I found 2 boxes today and ordered them. Going to give them a try.

Barnes LRX is your huckleberry.

It might be your huckleberry..........but not necessarily for anyone else....just sayin....
