[QUOTE="Michael O'Connor, post: 1390293, member: 103722"] The .264 has a higher sectional density than a .257, so until you reach the distance at very similar velocities; the .264 at high B.C. will always outperform the .257. It is much easier to maim an animal with a smaller frontal area, (diameter bullet), you also chance losing game with a smaller diameter bullet at great distance unless you are in a helicopter, smaller diameter bullets at distance create a lesser wound channel. Try following a blood trail from almost a half of mile away from where your game animal was shot. A waste of good meat, not to use the appropriate caliber. [/QUOTE]
