[QUOTE="budlight, post: 61196, member: 2939"] The 270 140 or 150 spbt when shot out the tube at 3200 fps will be exceeding the 87 grains 3500 starting speed by the time they get to 250 yards. I just never mess with HP's anymore. With fast enough bullets the results are the same with the higher BC sp's If you just want to tear the dogs apart at under 250 yards the 110 grain loaded to 3500 out of a 270 are just devistating and the 100 grains loaded to 3600 fps vaporize up to 10 pound animals. The sierra 110 grain .277 has a BC of 318 probably near the same as your 6mm 87 gr So shot at equal speed you do the math. Bigger diameter and 20 some % heavier. [/QUOTE]
