[QUOTE="Nomosendero, post: 93036, member: 3622"] My personal comfort level in the way of energy would be 500 yards or a little more with a stout load with a 120 Nosler Part. or a good 117-120 Gr. bullet. As far as fast twist barrels is concerned, I agree with Kirby that you are then in a different power level with the bullets you could then use. I don't know what barrel you have, but if you have a 24" or better yet a 26", you may look at having your gun "Ackley Improved". I have sure not regreted doing this & with the 125Wildcat I get 3,250FPS with .25-.30" accuracy. I feel this puts me in the 600 yard or more bracket for Deer sized Game & for Varmits, as far as I can hit them! [/QUOTE]
