[QUOTE="MontanaMarine, post: 229544, member: 268"] The 175 Berger is a fair bullet, but if you run external ballistics on a 175 Berger at 2750 fps, compared to a 208 Amax at 2550 fps, you might be surprised. In local atmosphere (4500') the 208 retains 1200 fps to 1500 yards, the 175 Berger to 1350 yards. The 208 will have less drift, and more energy, at all ranges. The 175 will save a couple MOA of elevation at 1K (29 vs 31) but that is not a significant advantage to me, once corrections are proven. [/QUOTE]
