Alleyoop Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 I just purchased a used BAR in 7MM Rem Mag. I hunt moose every couple of years and whitetail deer every year. I will likely be using different shells for each. Any recommendations for each would be appreciated. I have always used Remington 180 grain A frame in my .30-06 for both deer and moose with great success. My shot range is 50 yards out to 300. I don't want to spoil meat but I want an effective killing bullet. I know shot placement is most important. Remington A frame is available in 160 grain and looks good to me based on previous success with that shell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gissert Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 That should be plenty. Nosler Partitions, Swift A-frames, and Barnes Tripleshocks would all be good choices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrophyEyes Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 I have had luck with whitetails with the Winchester Silver Ballistic Tips in the 150 grains. They shoot very well out of my Browning A bolt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
looneyducer Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 I wouldn't monkey around with two loads. A 160 is plenty good enough for moose, and would have to be considered death on wheels for deer. One zero -- that's the key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CodyDawg Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Federal Premium Barnes TSXs. They are awesome. Do some research on them and you will see why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
