[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 665531, member: 30902"] You can't push the 208gr to 3000fps in a .308 case. At 2,500 which is possible however. E-208 Muzzle = 2880 1,000yds 879 WD=75" [URL="http://www.hornady.com/cgi-bin/ball10.cgi?firearm=Long&desc=.308win&wght=208&coef=.648&vel=2500&sight=1.5&temp=59&barom=29.53&zero=0&wspd=10&calcbutton=Calculate"]Ballistics Calculator v1.0[/URL] .243: 105gr-3,100fps Em-2240, 1,000yds=517 WD=76.7 [URL="http://www.hornady.com/cgi-bin/ball10.cgi?firearm=Long&desc=.243win&wght=105&coef=.500&vel=3100&sight=1.5&temp=59&barom=29.53&zero=0&wspd=10&calcbutton=Calculate"]Ballistics Calculator v1.0[/URL] When we stick to the realm of reality once again, same size case, heavier, higher BC bullett wins out again both energy wise, and wind drift wise. Again, there are limits to how fast you can push any bullet out of any given case. [/QUOTE]
