[QUOTE="BrentM, post: 871498, member: 61747"] I would also think that paper does not care about terminal ballistics so speed is not as important. For example berger says 1800 fps minimum for expansion so techinically that means when your bullet is under that speed at whatever distance that is, your done. Pick the distance you wish to shoot and find the chambering that gets you there. I think a 308 is a proven chamber for paper work out to 1000 but probably not something you would ever shoot an elk with. [/QUOTE]
