[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 253259, member: 7999"] I'm not sure if your velocities are quite right. Out of a 300rum you should be able to run a 200g Accubond @ 3150fps or so. You should be able to push the 180g E-tip to about 3400fps. Here is my calcs. from JBM @ my elevation 3000ft: 180 E-tip @ 1000yrds muzzle vel= 3400fps -19moa drop 5.3moa wind 1860fps 1382 ft lbs 200 Accubond @ 1000yrds muzzle vel= 3150fps 21.3moa drop 5.1moa wind 1824fps 1478 ft lbs It is at about a 1000yrds that the Accubond starts to out run the E-tip. So depending on how far you plan to shoot, I would choose the 180 E-tip. Steve [/QUOTE]
