Description
Weatherby Select ammunition delivers what magnum hunters expect: flat-shooting performance backed by serious power. This 7mm Weatherby Magnum load uses a 154-grain Hornady InterLock soft point bullet, giving you the controlled expansion and penetration needed for ethical kills on game from whitetail to elk.
What Makes the 154gr InterLock Effective
The Hornady InterLock design keeps the core and jacket locked together throughout expansion, maintaining bullet mass for deep penetration and consistent wound channels. The raised InterLock ring embedded in the bullet, combined with a secant ogive profile, creates the ballistic efficiency you need for flat trajectories at any practical hunting distance. This bullet has earned its reputation over decades of proven field performance on everything from antelope to larger game species.
Weatherby Select Load Specifications
You're getting factory-loaded ammunition built to Weatherby's quality standards. The 154-grain InterLock launches at approximately 3,260 feet per second, generating enough downrange energy to handle medium-sized game like whitetail deer and smaller elk effectively. The brass cases are boxer-primed and non-corrosive, making them suitable for reloading if you're into handloading down the line. Each box contains 20 rounds.
Why This Caliber Works
The 7mm Weatherby Magnum came before the more popular 7mm Remington Magnum and delivers ballistics that live up to the Weatherby name. It gives you magnum performance in a standard-length action without excessive recoil, and the cartridge is respected for its flat trajectory and dependable terminal performance. This Select load puts that advantage into your rifle right out of the box.
