[QUOTE="djm670, post: 816187, member: 36341"] Bigger wound channel and more engergy if they are traveling about the same speed because of the typically increased mass of the .30 bullet, basically more killing power. So you pay a penalty in recoil to kill something at 1000 plus yards... Where as with 1000 yard target shooting, you have to put repetitive holes in paper/target and don't need as much killing power thus the 6.5 mm high ballistic constant bullets shine - low recoil but just as flat or flatter shooting and wind drift ability.
