[QUOTE="Julie, post: 2165682, member: 118298"] I am building a .338 Norma for long range hunting and was hoping to have a setup capable of clean kills at 1000 yards and beyond. However, as I am looking at data from ballistic calculators, (I don't have it complete yet) I can't find any load data that will get me to the magic 1800FPS at 1000 yards. Up to now, I have only shot steel at 1000 and beyond with my 6.5 Creedmoor so velocity and energy didn't matter. Does anyone here have any experience hunting at that distance? Does the 1800 FPS threshold matter that much? Thanks, Julie [/QUOTE]
