[QUOTE="Outlaw6.0, post: 835013, member: 23486"] Mike, very few LRH shooters are using anything under 190grains in the 300wm. The only viable 180 I can think of is the Cutting Edge with a G1 of just under .600 IIRC.... If you bump up in weight to the 208, 210, 215, 225, & 230 you start to see a significant difference in down range performance. Some of these gents are getting incredible velocity from the heavies. The big bullets do thump more on [U]both [/U]ends, a good brake is near paramount. For a +15lb rifle, there will be no snap shots here (at least for me). Worring about hearing protection as some do, it a moot point in my eyes. YMMV As stated back in the ole days of drag racing "There is no replacement for displacement". :D t [/QUOTE]
