    7mm 155gr terminal ascent

    Does anyone have a few of these I could buy to try out? Either factory rounds or projectiles only. For 7mm rem mag. Also could trade for 160gr accubonds, 162gr eldx, 120gr bt, 120gr ttsx

    Seems fraught with disappointment....the terminal ascent are good pills but have been out of stock in NZ for a long time with no word of new stock anytime soon.

    Yeah seem to tick all the boxes but nothing about. Ablr possibly a good option too but worried about length as loading for tikka mag and read they’re picky with seating depth.

    Nosler 150g BallisticTips

    Short stubby ogive allows a just touch or 5 thou jump and easily fits in the magazine

    And they are hammers on game animals
