[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 239245, member: 4191"] You'll want to use a bullet with a high ballistic coefficient (BC) for shooting & hunting at 800 yard. High BC bullets are heavier weight bullets that are very streamline shaped. They retain their velocity better than lower BC bullets. BC is a way of rating the efficiency with which a bullet travels through the air. Higher BC bullets retain their velocity better than lower BC bullets do. Nosler sells a 200 grain Accubond that has a pretty good BC (I think its BC is listed as 0.588). That would be a great bullet to use. I think their 180 grain Accubond would still have a higher BC than their 180 partition. Berger sells VLD bullets in 190 and 210 grain weights. I shoot Nosler 200 gr ABs and Berger 210 VLDs in my 300 Winchester Magnum for long range hunting bullets. Find a high BC bullet that shoots well out of your rifle, and then you should be ready to start practicing and hunting. [/QUOTE]
