[QUOTE="proload, post: 644987, member: 34261"] I don't understand your thinking in this regard ... how and why would you want to download an 85gr pill (if you can find one) to 2670 fps ... your argument makes no sense at all. Sure thing sugar ... will post as soon as I get out there ... as you know from reading this post, I am still working on my load, but I am expecting great things with little meat damage. You see, meat damage has got more to do with impact velocity and bullet construction than bullet weight. Think about this ... have you ever seen a wound canal from a 7x57 Mauser or a 303 British ... you can literally eat right up to the hole, and thats because those calibers virtually guarantee low speed impacts (1800 - 2300 fps), but you definitely want that heavy bullet at those sort of velocities so that you can get that drive through momentum to give you full penetration. Anyway ... lets not drive each other crazy ... we can always agree to disagree ... [/QUOTE]
