    7mm projectiles.

    Hey all. So am looking at procuring a designated 'longer range' rifle for general muck arounds and animals.

    I've used accubonds (both types) and I've never had them group overly flash but have always seen the amax shoot easily in all rifles I've owned.

    I hope to shoot steel to 1000+, have done this before and animals obviously. Accuracy is always imo number 1. I am un sure of barrel twist at this stage but it'll be the new 7mmBM @26"

    So the lower the number the higher the weight of the projectile? I've never bothered looking into it.

    I wouldn't bother with the bergers eld in 175-180 And 195 to start with cheaper and better terminal performance
