[QUOTE="Kevin, post: 43679, member: 603"] Thanks, I was actually looking to get some 45gr bergers and give them a try as the BC isn't as bad. Just to add a little field test experience. I got to try out the 40gr Sivertips on some rabbits. I was very impressed. They were hiding in the brush so shots were not far. Impact velocity on one was about 4500fps. The rabbit tumbled on impact and exit wound was about 3in. Longest shot was only 200 yards and the result was about the same. I was surprised to see that the bullets were actually staying together enough to make sizable drag marks on the ground and ricochet off to somewhere. Michael- Where in MT are you, I am in West Yellowstone. [/QUOTE]
