[QUOTE="youngbuck, post: 567136, member: 22987"] Shoot a lighter bullet for flatter trajectory and speed. I'e heard some guys run 3300fps w/ 180s. My 180gr load was a little slower. If you run 165s or 150s you'll have a flatter trajectory (at the front end anyway) and more muzzle velocity. If you want to play at distance forget flat shooting and muzzle velocity. Look at velocity on target and energy when it gets there. I shoot a 208 and a 230 now in my 300RUM. Only downside to going to a RUM you haven't mentioned is barrel life. [/QUOTE]
