You should be able to push those 120s past 3500fps. I’m getting almost 3300 with the 150s. (R22, 64.5g with a COAL of 3.3385)

3300 FPS is VERY fast for 150 gr bullets in 7mm Remington mag. Do you need two hands to open the bolt. grin


I've seen a berger 140 hit a target like a shotgun pattern. Apparently trying to push them above 3600 doesn't work well. A buddy had a good long conversation with Brian Litz about the subject. His question was, "why would anyone want to build a 300 wby improved?" laugh

A good question since a 300 Weatherby is essentially a 300 H&H magnum improved.
