[QUOTE="longarm, post: 875201, member: 47671"] As the rifle is to be a normal hunting rifle, I can't see myself shooting much past 400 yards. I thought the optimum weight projectile in terms of flat trajectory vs wind-drift would be around 90 grains, with the 95 grain Berger a good choice. I thought the 105 grain would be better if I were shooting longer distances rather than up to around 400 yards. I use the 150 grain Bergers at 3300 in a heavy 27 1/2 barrel 270 Dakota for the longer shots. I will look up Whidden but will probably choose RCBS as they are slightly cheaper than Redding and both do dies for 240 PSP. Thanks for the response. [/QUOTE]
