[QUOTE="Bravo 4, post: 2560368, member: 8873"] My opinion is if you want as far a max point blank range (MPBR) as possible then you need velocity. A .257 Weatherby loaded with some light bullets going over 3700 fps (like an absolute hammer that some have gotten over 3900) would help you maximize an MPBR. I do agree that one of the best investments you can have is a good laser range finder. 500 yards is a good poke out there, especially if you aren’t used to it. It is not what most would consider long range (more like medium/moderate), but plenty far enough to miss any game animal due to drop and wind deflection if your range estimation is off. Get a range finder! [/QUOTE]
