7mm JDJ No. 2

7mm JDJ No. 2
Warning! CAUTION: THESE ARE VERY HOT LOADS! NOTES: Excellent bullets are available for this cartridge. With proper loads and in the hands of a good shot, this chambering is capable of 300-yard shots on smaller big game species. In handgun-length barrels, ballistics are not significantly superior to the smaller 7mm JDJ offerings to justify the existence of this chambering. The Barnes 100-grain and 120-grain X bullets offer superior terminal performance for hunting applications. However, use of X bullets requires special handloading techniques (deeper bullet seating and a reduction in powder charge). (Cartridges of the World 9th Edition)
