I have a mulie/pronghorn doe hunt next week. Going to the "Long range" range Friday to verify my load. This is the only range I have access to further than 200 yards, and its quite a drive, so i don't get there often.
I have narrowed my load down to 2 options. They are the same load, only difference is the jump:
First Load:
Practically speaking, both rounds perform nearly identically for the distances Ill be shooting (2" of drop @ 500 and .6" of drift in a full value 15 MPH wind difference b/w the 2)
Specs:
H1000

I have narrowed my load down to 2 options. They are the same load, only difference is the jump:
First Load:
- Great accuracy @ 100 (consistently .5 MOA and often smaller)
- Great consistency (ES of 8-10, SD of 4.5)
- Very slow for the cartridge
- .090" jump
- Good accuracy @ 100 (about .75 MOA)
- Good consistency (Es of 17, SD of 6.7)
- 65 FPS faster
- at lands
