I received a notification from Swift today that 7mm 160 gr A-Frames are currently available. I find this bullet to be ideal for the 7x57.

How do you think 7mm 160 or 175 gr Swift A Frame would work on Elk out of a 7 PRC. Too tough of a bullet or ? Or I am thinking Barnes 160 gr LRX. The Swifts as everyone knows are pretty expensive compared to the Barnes. I am pretty confident the LRX will expand on an Elk but no experience with the A Frames but read that they are very tough bullets. TIA
 
I've shot several elk and a moose with a 338 WM, using 225 gr Swift A Frames. I personally think it's the best bullet available. Problem is, availability. In my 7x57, the 160 gr SAF worked very good on PG. For the 7 PRC, I think the 175 gr SAF would be a great combo.

Thanks for the reply. Appreciate your opinion and experience.

Here's the target for the NorthForks - 25yds off a bag, iron sights. Hunting leopards over dogs the range won't be more than that.

Flew in an airshow in Smyrna years ago, beautiful country.

Best regards,
