[QUOTE="NorthRiverGuide, post: 2625825, member: 124575"] I shoot out to a mile pretty often with some of my rifles. Running several different bullets SMK for years, Hornady amax, Hornady eld match, and Berger vld’s. Very comfortable with my abilities out to 1200 yards with multiple cartridges and rifles. Had some less then ideal results hunting with some bullets. SST I didn’t like the terminal performance especially as the velocity dropped. Barnes I wasn’t very impressed with either. This area hunting is very steep and not a lot of concealment. Occasionally they get close shots but most are in the 500 yard range. I used to have a big collection of bullets and options to use. Unfortunately in my last move the movers “lost” stole a box with most of my bullets. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to get them back. I have a few that was with the rest of the reloading gear. I could hunt with the match bullets I shoot at long range. However I’m keeping those for shooting competition. So now trying to find bullets which is getting better but still not great. Figured I would look at small companies. There’s been a few popping up and I’ve heard some good reports. So why not try new bullets and support small business at the same time. [/QUOTE]
