The real value of the 7MM Mag is with the heavy bullets. Much less cartridges throw the 139ers easily. The 7MM Mag should use the 160-175 grain bullets.
That said a lot of folks use it for it's speed and the 139-154 grain bullets also work. If I was to use those I'd far prefer the 7-08.

I have 2 guns, one gets 140 B/T's and the other gets 160 Accubonds. I didnt plan on it happening that way, I just let the gun tell me what it likes. My Savage has always shot the 160's better, and my Ruger has seemed to always like the 140's.
