[QUOTE="Ward Thurman, post: 2336647, member: 109209"] Good advice below. If you want to go past 300 yds, I recommend going above 22 cal. As the guy below says, the 22's are affected by wind a lot more than the larger calibers & heavier bullets. We have used a 243 effectively at times with 95 gr bullets. We usually load up 60 gr HP in it for the PD, but we have trouble w/ hits at the long ranges with the 60 gr HP's. Wind will be an issue if you are going to western SD. Central MT has the same challenges. [/QUOTE]
