[QUOTE="yobuck, post: 1347504, member: 12443"] Well I did suggest actual shooting as opposed to (checking the stats). But I do realize that's not easy for some to do, especially if they don't actually have the gun. lol Point is the heavy high BC number bullets aren't really all many think they are in many cases when compared to lighter ones for that same cartridge, even at distances well beyond what most of us will ever shoot at an animal. If your bag is shooting at milk jugs then disregard what ive said and stick with the heavy bullets, and of coarse disregard it regardless if that's your choice. But don't forget velocity does improve the BC of a bullet, which is why some bullet makers are reluctant to label the number. Also the numbers quoted above for 1200 yds are actually about the limit for that cartridge anyway for hunting, at least for me. But id be interested in hearing about the experiences others have had with it at longer distances. [/QUOTE]
