[QUOTE="Jud96, post: 925003, member: 69478"] Doesn't have enough kahunas to push those heavy, high BC bullets. Really need a magnum for work out to 1000yds. The wind will destroy those 250s that are slowly poking through the air at 1000yds. Get a .30cal magnum like the .300 Winchester or .300 Weatherby and shoot high BC bullets like a 208gr A-MAX, 210gr Berger and SMK, or 215gr Berger. Your energy at 1000yds will be around 1300lbs or more with anyone of these bullets and cartridge combos and that's at my low elevation of 1000 feet! If you want to shoot the distance have to cowboy up and step up to the magnums if you want to kill anything effectively and buck the wind at 1000yds. [/QUOTE]
