[QUOTE="Remi, post: 5892477, member: 21887"] And the reason I don’t think a few hundred fps matters…. Old 140gr Nosler ballistic tip in 100 packs. Supposedly they are bombs that detonate if they touch a spider web 7-30 waters with 33grs of 3031- 2300ish fps on a big doe at 30yds. Broke both shoulder, spine and exited, she ran zero feet. Not much of a test, but still a test 708 Remington with 25grs of imr4198, 2400fps-ish, maybe, and the 140’s on the largest boar I’ve ever killed. I’m not sure what he weighed but it took 3 of us to load him on the hitch haul 80-90yds quartered to me. I hit him between the right ear and eye, through the skull, through the spine, through the shoulder and out through the Kevlar impenetrable shield, lol. He ran zero feet. It’s only a sample of two with the 7mm but I’ve also done the same thing with the 30-06. Reduced velocity 150’s, 2500-2600fps or so resulted in very short trips for deer I’ve shot with it. [/QUOTE]
