[QUOTE="Dave King, post: 11285, member: 3"] Whoa!! and your title is newbie_71?? We don't generally talk about "Danger Space" here so some folks are probably not familiar with the term. Perhaps a short explanation would be in order, care to give one. (It'd help some. Thanks) Less absolute bullet drop equates to more danger space. I believe where you're headed is "should I pick a lighter and possibly lower BC bullet for my shooting and reap the short range less drop danger space increase/benefit OR go for a heavier, high BC bullet and suffer with a rainbow trajectory and lesser danger space". If I were to be shooting at [B]unknown and/or accurately determined[/B] ranges I'd probably opt for the faster bullet and increased danger space but this limits/decreases the longer range energy/speed. Once I take on the method of knowing the range accurately I can choose the bullet with the colorful trajectory and reap those benefits. Hope this helps some.
