[QUOTE="Topshot, post: 603047, member: 13285"] The .338WM will get to 1000 easy. I do a lot of my low velocity bullet testing with a .338WM at 1000 yards. To get the velocity low enough for some bullets I have to use reduced loads. Even with reduced loads it is easy to hit a target at 1000 yards so long as the bullet handles velocity near transonic which is the whole point of some of my tests as well as low velocity expansion. One of the most impressive bullets that I have used has been the 225 grain Hornady Interbond. Its BC is also understated by Hornady and this bullet has proven to be the best bullet that I have ever tested with regard to low velocity expansion. If only Hornady came out with a plastic tip 250 grain A-Max. [/QUOTE]
