7mm RUM & 120gr. Barnes trip/shock
« on: January 11, 2006, 04:39:12 PM »
Have a 7mmRUM that I have been shootong the 150 scirroco in. Now have a 300RUM that I willl shoot the 150and 180 scirroco in depending on what I'm after.

Would like to load some 120 Barnes trip/shocks for the 7mm RUM for some long distance whitetail.

Does anyone have a load of this nature and about what velocity will I be looking at. Also are there any pros and cons in tring to do this. What will my effective range be for southern whitetail(<200lbs.).

What is the minimum speed for this bullet  to  open up correctly, and at what distance will this happen with a load like this.

thanks, DM
