[QUOTE="Highvoltage, post: 1973012, member: 109082"] I’ve spoke with both hornady and Sierra techs about this issue at one time and both said same thing. The energy factor is a thing of the past and your looking at the minimum velocity the projectile will expand. So most are 1800 some are 1600. Me personally I’d error on the side of caution and use 2000 as the limiting factor for a long range shot from your creed as long as your proficient in shooting that distance. Spend some time at the range and get to know your new rifle. Best wishes [/QUOTE]
