[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1213615, member: 12995"] Yes, but accuracy without velocity is useless for hunting. For a hunting rifle, velocity, energy, consistency, accuracy (shot placement) are all equal parts of the equation for a successful shot when taking a game animal. With benchrest shooting, group size is all that matters. Is this a hunting rifle, or is this a benchrest rifle. Because if it's strictly a BR rifle, then velocity doesn't mean anything until you start getting past about 500 yards when when wind-bucking affects and BC's really start meaning something. [/QUOTE]
