Are you using them in rem mag @7mmsaum

I do when required.

162g eldm on Sika and the Noslers on reds, -hinds and stags if I’m all day on reds.

If I’m in an area with only occasional reds then they get a eldm

I used to dual load the 140gr BT and AB in 7/08. From memory the AB shot about half an inch higher, but close enough to interchange.

Only used the AB on Sambar, found them too hard on anything else. The BT does it all, shouldn't have even bothered with the AB to be honest.

Now I solely use the 162gr Amax...devastating.
