[QUOTE="Bravo 4, post: 1463761, member: 8873"] Not a hit on you Philly, but gonna put a lot more emphasis on your statement. That degree of altitude change makes all the difference in the world. You litterally need about 650 fps added to that bullet at sea level to compare to velocity/energy at those higher altitudes when shooting a mile. Even with that added velocity (at sea level) you will still loose out in wind deflection. Comparing a cartridge’s capability/performance at sea level and 7-8-9,000 feet is apples and oranges at ELR ranges. [/QUOTE]
