[QUOTE="Tikkamike, post: 607145, member: 22242"] I understand your point and I couldnt agree more. The first thing that pops into my head is the new 300 grain accubond vs. the SMK and berger 300 grainers. I think its a far better choice. Although the 300 grainers do have extra wieght that will get you home in spite of failed performance. The smaller more common rifles like the 300's and the 7mm's There are some good choices out there with decent BC's that will perform well on game. I live in wyoming which is by far one of the most wide open states, in my opinion 9 times out of 10 its harder to get a 1000 yard what than it is a 6 or 700 yard shot with 2-400 being the norm at these ranges BC is simply not nearly as important as a good perfoming bullet. This opens up the debate of ?what does a well perfoming bullet do? but that is dead horse we can REbeat another day. To sum it up I agree! However for super long range I feel the need for every "flight advantage" possible which is why I built my rifle for 300 SMK's and plan to try the bergers. because you cant kill what you dont hit. So there is a line in there for everyone but for different people it is drawn at different distances. [/QUOTE]
