[QUOTE="TOM H, post: 99777, member: 306"] One of the biggest advantages with the AI round now is barrels like the Broughton 5c which will also increase velocity. How much really depends on bullets and twist. You will see alot of 308 at 1000 yd Camp Perry but they shoot for the x ring, groups shooting at 1000yd don't see the 308 so when you talk about varmits at 1/2 mile you need a pretty good groups shooting rifle. What you need to do is run some #'s as to what engery you need to take a deer at 600/700 yds. I sure take to one of the LR gunsmiths here and see what they have to say. Well good luck. [/QUOTE]
