I think you are absolutely correct. A wide choice of loads - everything from flat shooting 123gn loads up to powerful 176 gn thumpers. Most single shots and combinations tend to be very well built and accurate - certainly for anything that you want to do within 200 yds

You do though to shoot them properly, as in firm grip on foreend with back of your hand on a rest. They don't resond well in my experience to rest the foreend on a rest and then shooting with the sniper style cross arms that seems to be all the rage with heavy barrel bolt actions with bipeds etc.

Ok it's not the tool for 400 yd shots, but then most 7x65rs are nice and light and very handy -getting into those last 250 yds is where the fun is.

Even for driven big game they are more than adequate, although if this was your main sport perhaps an 8mm or 9.3 might be more appropriate, but they are not as flat shooting.
