[QUOTE="brant89, post: 1293732, member: 49553"] I started out learning on a .223 and once I began reloading I adopted the 75gr AMAX as my bullet of choice. I have since built a 260AI and 300WM and with the AMAX bullets being discontinued I am in a bit of a quandary. I am getting ready to put in a 400yd range behind my house and I'm questioning whether I should switch the rifle over to the new ELD-M bullets for their high BC or downgrade to the 55gr VMAX to better hone my skills at judging wind. The part that has me torn here is that with the high BC bullets this rifle is a known groundhog destroyer out to 600+, but my ultimate goal is ethical one shot kills on big game at 800+ with the new 300WM, and the wind drift of the 55gr VMAX at 400yd would be nearly identical to the 300WM at 800yd. What do the judges think? [/QUOTE]
