[QUOTE="philny1, post: 142874, member: 7121"] Those are my numbers. Didn't think the BC would be that high. This elk is the my longest shot taken to date. Would like to extend my effective range to 800 yds with the equipement I have, the two Sakos--30-378 & 338 Lapua. I don't forsee any problems with the Barnes TSX expanding at that distance. Been using them in a 6mm Rem, 300 Wby, 30-378 Wby, 375 H&H, and now the Lapua. Plus I load another 8-10 different cartridges for my customers and friends. Don't beleive I've had a rifle here that wouldn't shoot them. Last fall, I took elk from 35 yds to over 500 yds, no problem with the Barnes. If I continue to read this forum, I'll probably have to order an Allen mag or the like, then I'll worry bout expansion. BTW. Have a post in handloading--Lapua Brass-- if you get a minute would like your opinion. [/QUOTE]
