Thread: 7mm 180 VLD Hybrid performance on game

What distance are you wanting to shoot game to? they have a thicker jacket than the 180gr hunting bullets.
If its a 7mmsaum your using the 162Amax at 3000fps would be a better choice.

Groups way way better with the VLD's for some reason, Just strugle to keep the Amax groups consistant where as the 140 and 180 VLD's are the same every time with the only flyers down to shooter error. Amax was good one day then shit the next, 160AB was the same but the 140AB works a treat?????? Doesn't seem the shoot the 106 weight well for some reason.

might try a few more things with the amax including groups at 300.... but every load with the vlds has been OK and some mint

As for distance realisticly 600 but would be nice to go further with pratice....when I finish sorting a break for it as there is no show of spotting your shots ATM
