[QUOTE="MontanaMarine, post: 1017711, member: 268"] Velocity always drops, but BC is the gift that keeps on giving. Yes if you push some of the lighter bullets you may save a couple moa at 1000 yards. But the heavy 200+gr with BC's over .600 will come out ahead in drift, and terminal energy, and also terminal velocity in many cases. I'm shooting the 208 Amax at 2720 fps from a 22.5" bbl. Also shoot some of the 155gr Scenar at 3050 fps. The 155 is a tad flatter at 1K, but with more drift, and less energy. [/QUOTE]
