[QUOTE="Korhil78, post: 727828, member: 34818"] I choose the larger of the two because it has more foot lbs of energy, it has a larger wound channel because the 200 gr will open up more because it has longer petals. So no, i was not contradicting myself. Also, if the bullet hits hard bone then the heavier bullet will be less likely to deviate off course. In a situation where the wind is blowing from your 3 o'clock to your 9 o'clock at 20 mph, at 500 yards the difference between the 200 gr and 130 gr is that you have to turn 4 more clicks or 1 MOA more to the right with the 200 gr bullet. The bigger difference is the elevation adjustment but even then if you have your drops down, anyone can make quick work of the adjustments needed at 500 yards for elevation. [/QUOTE]
