[QUOTE="canyonman1, post: 397353, member: 16969"] I hope they don't toughen it up too much,or long range reliability for hunting will go out the window. I have recovered jackets that are perfect in my eyes, for terminal performance at long range. After an impact velocity of around 1,300 fps. or so @ 1,930 yds, into a sandstone type rock, they are serrated into 3 long, distinct petals, with minimal lead attached, but malible enough to bend with your fingers. Should be perfect in game... I use JBM Ballistics and the .455 G7 BC. With a velocity of 2750 fps. is perfect at the elevation and for the conditions I shot in last week out to 1,930. I shot from 800 to 1,930 on 2 occasions and the drops and comeups matched perfect. Shot 4" 3 shots center left bull first time out so something has to be right on. I know the second day I was 3moa low with first 2 shots, but it was also 20* cooler and with higher pressure. 10* temp change will be about 1moa @ 1,000 yds. and will increase with distance, so I don't think the 3moa drop is too far out of wack at nearly 2,000 yds.
