    7MM RM with 175SMK

    I was wondering if any one had experience loading the 7mm RM with 175SMKs? I have Re22 and Fed210Ms

    cheers

    Arent these the ones known to not open overly well on game? Whats the intended use? Be interested to see how you get on with them.

    I have used smks extensively on goats and deer and have always been very impressed at how they perform. They are generally easy to get to shoot provided the barrel twist is sufficient
