[QUOTE="MTbackwoods, post: 2567617, member: 113441"] The 175 is holding true to the advertised bc out to 900 yards so far. I may stretch it further but I don’t have much desire to. My personal limits for hunting shots are 600 with the exception to go to 800 under near perfect conditions. So shooting well beyond 1,000 just seems like a waste of components to me. I sent a handful off to a guy on YouTube that has a channel called SimpleMindedFella. He should be doing a gel test video soon to show low velocity performance The 205 has a g7 of .324 and the 175 has a g7 of .310. The load I settled on for the 205 was running at 2,950 and the load for the 175 is 3,186. That’s a small trade in bc for a substantial gain in velocity [/QUOTE]
