[QUOTE="westcliffe01, post: 811942, member: 35183"] With a BC of 0.38 vs 0.48 (Berger 95gr VLD) or 0.532 (105gr Berger VLD) you will be losing energy at a significantly faster rate with the Nosler compared to a Berger. Wind drift will be substantially higher too. I can understand that you would be inclined to keep engagement distances shorter based on that choice. Of course finding an acceptable "jump" to shoot the Berger in a satisfactory way requires more work, and many factory barrels will not shoot either well or at all. But with a good 1:8 twist match barrel, and possibly with an Ackley chamber, those loads shoot beautifully. [/QUOTE]
