HSM BER7STW168VL Trophy Gold 7mm Shooting Times Westerner Mag BTHP 168 GR 20Rds
HSM has become known as one of the top ammunition manufacturers in the country. HSM utilizes the highest quality components to offer extremely consistent, accurate, and high performing ammunition to shooters, hunters, and law enforcement.
The Berger Hunting bullet line features Very Low Drag (VLD) bullets that have the highest possible ballistic coefficient designed for 300 yards or more. The VLD design incorporates a sharp nose that allows the bullet to penetrate 2" to 3" before it starts to expand. After the initial expansion, the bullet will shed between 40% and 85% of its weight as shrapnel into the surrounding tissue (internal organs).
The combination between the shrapnel and the hydrostatic shock produces a massive wound cavity within the vital area that will be 13" - 15" long. This massive wound cavity results in the animal dropping fast since most go into shock after such a tremendous blow.

The information below comes from our Gun Caliber Dictionary and is for
general reference only. It does not describe the specifications of this
particular item.
The 7mm Shooting Times Westerner (STW) was wildcatted by gunwriter Layne Simpson in the late 1980s and adopted by Remington in 1996. Based on the 8mm Remington Magnum case necked down, the 7mm STW is a full-length magnum with 2.850-inch belted case. At the time it was the fastest commercial 7mm, but was eclipsed by the 7mm RUM just a few years later. Like the 7mm RUM, the 7mm STW is overbore capacity, meaning that it does best with longer barrels, is finicky about propellants, and causes rapid bore erosion--but it is also an extremely flat-shooting and very effective hunting cartridge for Western game at longer ranges...which is why it was so named.
