[QUOTE="Catfur, post: 811680, member: 41271"] Usually, check with the bullet mfg. 1800fps is a good number for a typical HPBT, 2000fps for a monometal expanding bullet. Using, as an example, a 95 grain Berger classic hybrid, with a muzzle velocity at 3025, and typical fall hunting conditions where I am, the bullet is travelling 1820 fps at 700 yards. Berger recommends 1825 fps for good expansion, so 700 yards is a good max number. Can I hit a deer at 700 yards? That's a completely different question... [/QUOTE]
