[QUOTE="Guest, post: 34193"] from what I have found with several calibers including the 6.5 , the realy high BC bullets don't realy like to be pushed much faster than 3000-3200fps or the accuracy suffers , at least with the Berger and Hornady A-max bullets. Why shoot 80+ gr of powder to get a lesser result than with 65gr ? Personaly I'd rather give up a 200fps if it closed my groups by 25% , I think a slow hit is better than a fast miss as long as you slow hit has enough thump to offer a quick kill. Thats why if it came to making a life of death shot at 800yds I'd be shooting my 308 rather than any of my other 30 mags. [/QUOTE]
