    162 amax

    So, as luck would have it and both rabbits aside...
    I assume the consensus is the 162amax works 'better' at reduced speed... Correct?
    Do any of you use as a lighter loaded projectile? ... 2600fps like? Like from the much acclaimed and highly appreciated and mighty 7mm08 speed range?
    They appear to shoot well but I fail to see the point of pissing around loading multiple projectile loads if the 'main' objective is to shoot NZ game.
    Obviously my and some of us will basically never need to push a pill super fast for the 50-300m shots to use the 7mm to its potential but even nights was a large boar at 60m in the rain.
    60metres. 140 partitions.
