Been really liking the 7mm lately. Shooting the big bullets fast and they’re pretty tough to beat ballistically.

I’ve killed big game with 195 EOL, 180 Hybrid, 180 VLD-H, 180 ELDM and 169 Hammer Hunter. They all performed as designed or intended.

Curious what others have used with the most success and maybe even just what else is out there that I potentially don’t even know about.
 
Over the years I've seen more elk fall to 140 and 160gr accubonds than anything. But they are old and boring now. Last few have been eld-x and 165 sierra tgk. Been quite pleased with the sierra tgk actually, so far it has held together better than other cup & core bullets I have tried.
I bought some 180 eld-m to try this year but never got around to working up a load, maybe next season.
 
I've had good results on everything I've shot with a 180 berger hybrid out of a 20 inch barreled 7 saum. I've got 180 eldms in the reloading room I keep threatening to try but the bergers are accurate and so far very deadly.
 
Killed around 15-16 animals (deer, elk, moose, antelope, bear) with a 150 scenar out of the 7 rem mag. Furthest was 623 in a 5 point bull…Scenars are bone crushers…

My next project will be an 8 twist 7 mag of some flavor to shoot 180 scenars
