[QUOTE="Buffalobob, post: 652334, member: 8"] To repeat what Jim said, you may need to change to either the 115 Berger or a Sierra or the Berger Target VLD to withstand the velocities. You can expect to clean the barrel frequently and probably differently than you do now. You can expect that shots will take 5 - 10 minutes to get all of the data collected and an output together. Killing antelope at and beyond 1K will become routine and you will find that the lazer qualities are long gone and that wind is not the problem so much as a very accurate range. Of course if you insist on shooting in winds that are beyond your skills then you will be a very frustrated person. [/QUOTE]
