[QUOTE="Long Time Long Ranger, post: 611752, member: 505"] I agree, I have shot hornady bullets in every caliber for 40 years and they are very good bullets with excellent on game performance. I remember doing drop tests 30 years ago to 1000 yards with the hornady 30 cal 190 boattail out of a 300 wby. It shot way flatter than listed way back then. I used that bullet with good results on long range elk. Back in those days it and the 200 sgk were two of the best. We didn't have the choices we have now. I have shot several animals with the 208 Amax and it is a fragile bullet but the size and weight helped it through. Just wondering about the 123 Amax in the 264 if it is to fragile to consider for long range deer/antelope. This rifle's twist is to slow for the 140 vld's. [/QUOTE]
