    Thanks for all your replies I will forward all the info to him. The answers were what i suspected they would be but nice to be able to confirm my opinion. He is unlikely to go anywhere near 800yds, but good to know that is within the rounds capabilities. Cheers Ackley

    Hey, DAF, what bullet weight are you using? What powder weight for RE22? Magnum primers? Thanks!

    I haven't used the 180's as yet, I recently bought a 7mmSAUM match reamer which suites them but ended up building 7-300wsm instead which I also have a match reamer for.
