Looking to choose a bullet for my 7prc, 22" barrel for hunting purposes. ranges anywhere from 50-500yds Considering the followwing options looking to see if anyone has any feedback on these bullets.

160 tmk
wait for new 185tmk?
180 eldm
175 elite hunter
or
180 hybrid

I'm leaning 180 hybrid but wanted to see what kind of feedback and experience everyone has

Thanks!
 
I’m about to do load work up for my FIL 7PRC, I’ve been wondering what to use. There’s a thread where the 180 hybrid gets a lot of mention. “Most killingest 7mm bullet”


I was gonna start with

175eldx
175 elite hunter
180hybrid
 
I use the 175 elite hunter in my 7 saum and it works great. I would not have any issues also using the 180 hybrid. Just have not used them on game.
 
Can't go wrong with any Berger bullet but I lean toward the 175 Elite Hunter. The VLDs and Elite Hunters both shoot fantastic out of my rifle, and I personally prefer the thin J4 hunting jacket over the target jacket.
 
The first box i bought was 180 ELDM and it shot sub MOA and consistently so I never even tried another box. have only been fortunate enough to shoot a coyote with it and obviously it was more than enough for the job. I didn't draw a spring bear tag so will have to wait until fall for anything larger.
 
I've had good success with vld's in the past out of a 240wby mag and 300wby mag, mixed results with the 6.5 135 classic hunter in a 6.5x47. May try both the 175 elite hunter and 180 hybrid. So many choices, only thing lacking is time!
