[QUOTE="benchracer, post: 345682, member: 22069"] Topshot, I discovered my error after I made that post. I was looking at bullets on Midway's site and they had the wrong BC posted. Went to Hornady's site and they showed .675 for that bullet. I stand corrected, which changes my perception of your experience at 527 yards with the shoulder-hit Sambar stag. Your experience has highlighted to me an oversight in my thinking. From the beginning, I have approached my long range shooting goals from a standpoint more suited to punching paper. That is to say that I have been focusing on MV and BC, while forgetting about terminal performance-- a factor just as critical to long range huntinig. Thanks, again, for your insight. [/QUOTE]
