[QUOTE="wbm, post: 954930, member: 14158"] Orion6 I don't think you would be pushing anything with the speeds you talked about. I shoot the 120 Nosler mainly because I live at 7000ft...(I use the 140 Berger for hunting Mule Deer and Elk.) The 120 moving at 3300fps set 1" high at 100 is -215" at 1000 and still moving at 1700fps. Time to target is 1.27 seconds. It is a hoot to shoot!! Way too much gun for Coyotes but when it hits them it is just awesome to see. I think the time-to-target is one reason the U.S Secret Service chose the 120gr round for one of it's counter sniper loads for the 7MM Magnum. Nosler loaded this bullet to a max of 3500fps in their testing. That is hauling! However, my accuracy load is 3300 so don't see any reason to move up. [/QUOTE]
