[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 79309, member: 10"] Roy, With that bullet weight and BC level, loosing even 100 fps is not worth worrying about as long as your getting the groups. YOu will be far over super sonic out to 850 yards. As you know, always take consistancy and accuracy over velocity for long range shooting, that is a given everytime! What jacket did Richard use on that bullet? I suspect it is heavier then the Sierra and if that is the case then it is the heavier jacket that is lowering velocity, again, for use on heavier game, well worth the 50 FPS loss. I have seen this with other Wildcat Bullets with the heavier jackets. Again, if this is a heavy jacket, that is probably the reason for the velocity drop. Kirby Allen(50) [/QUOTE]
