[QUOTE="Ronald W Schaefer, post: 2628411, member: 109378"] Using 165 gr Nosler ABLR and 175 gr Sierra gamechanger, new western brass, Fed 215 primers and very slow powders. Very high ballistics coefficients put some good legs on that round and high sectional densities give great penetration and bullets have good wind resistance. Launching at a very casual 2844 with ABLR and 2800 with 175 they hit like a .300 WM at 500 yards, still have 1200 Ft Lbs. at 700 yds. I just haven't warmed up to Berger or Hammer bullets, but I do like Barnes TTSX. [/QUOTE]
