Anybody using the 240 Match King in a 30 cal for long range hunting?
What rifle?
What rifle?
Plugged in the numbers 240 at 3K, and 210 at 3200.
The 210 shoots flatter obviously by 2 ft at 1K when both zeroed at 100 yards. Windage is 1" difference at 1K which is nothing. I dont think anybody can judge wind to within 1" at 1K to make that a deciding factor. Even at 1500 yards, the diffrence in wind is only 5", which again, I doubt anybody can accurately judge 5" at 1500 yards to make that a deciding factor once again.
The 210 retains more velocity out to 1475 yards, where at 1500 the 240 finally surpasses it by a whole 2fps.
The energy difference at 1500 is only about 140 ft lbs in favor of the 240.
So if you ask me, its pretty dang even between the 2. I would shoot whichever is most accurate and not worry about anything else. They'll both do what you ask of them.
