[QUOTE="BrentM, post: 875897, member: 61747"] 6.5-284. I had some test loads at 1 grain more powder and at 948 yards I needed to pull roughly 1.25 to 1.5 moa out to get back on target. If the case will handle the pressure, looks like it might, I estimate the speed to be 2800. My 2700 fps solutioin from 525, 948, and 1488 yards was dead on. I think it is right in there. I had 3 test loads and shot at a medium pumpkin. First round was high and pulled off some elevation and the next two rounds hit the pumpkin. 140 pills in my rifle fly 2940. If the 160 will fly 2800 they will out perform the 140. If not the 140 still has the zip to make up for the BC inside of 1000. [/QUOTE]
