Always read an been told 1000lbs in the yardstick. Highest I have ever read was 1200lbs but that was only ever once. Buuuut even if we use 1500lbs at 2700fps a 162eldm will deliver that out to 550yds...

I got 2660 out of an 18" bbl. 7mm08 tikka with 162eldx but need to single feed like I said above. Even if only 2650 doesn't matter as still gives you more oomph at range than almost any hunter would...
Oh with that long barrel a caseful of 2209 behind a 162eldm will give you over 2700. No need to spend the money making it a magnum if you are getting performance like that and still if not too fast...
You could single feed 162 eldms with a caseful of 2206h or 2208 and get more range than you could shoot an animal with. How long is the barrel?
