[QUOTE="Varminator 911, post: 216277, member: 9705"] [b]Need smaller caliber high BC bullets[/b] The new Henson 308 220 Al tipped bullet has a bc near 0.9. So that would get you back to the 308. But Henson, and hopefully Wildcat, are going to build smaller caliber Al tipped high bc bullets. If you can keep the bc anywhere near 0.9 and get down to 264 caliber or smaller, then the recoil becomes much more manageable. A 0.8-0.9 bc bullet out of the 6.5mm-284 would nearly there. Maybe they can get near 0.8 bc out of the 6mm and keep velocity near 3000 fps. I'm really stoaked about the Henson 220. In a light rifle in 300WSM or heavier in 300 RUM. That will kill feral pigs a long ways off. [/QUOTE]
