[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 318809, member: 10"] I would think you will get a bit more then 3000 fps with the 208. Out to 1000 yards, likely the A-Max will shoot flatter and be very similiar in drift because of its velocity advantage over the SMK. The 240, for its weight really does not have an overly high BC for what it could have. With modern bullet designs, such as the A-Max, there is no reason why we should not be getting +.8 BC at least with this weight bullet. As such, because of its BC and high weight which limits velocity, the lighter bullets can perform very well in comparision out to 1000 yards at least. at longer ranges, the 240 would start to pull away more.
