7WSM deer load

That would be a very versatile and inexpensive load.

But I'd also load a few and test out the terminal ballistics at 25 yards, too.

2850... even 2800... would still be a great load, especially if it hung together as a woods round.

W/ a BC of 0.389, it's about a 400 yard load at any of those muzzle velocities.

So, to me, it's a good practice to avoid the potential close range failure, at the expense of an extra 25 yds past 400.

There are long range bullet options if 400 doesn't do it for you...

I agree 500 is my max but if i'm being realistic 400 is where i'm sitting so don't really need high bc at the moment. This rifle will be used out west in a few years for a New Mexico mule deer hunt
