[QUOTE="strikeforce32, post: 2379403, member: 35203"] I don’t blame you— for shooting @1000 it’s not necessary but for carrying adequate terminal energy/velocity that far for ethical hunting, it really is necessary though. 280 Ackley Improved with a 26” or longer barrel using 168 NABLR or similar would be the lightest that I would consider (I personally prefer this option be kept inside of 700 yards) for that distance— unless you are capable of shooting a cold bore shot into a Skoal can beyond that without ever missing. That’s just my .02 though [/QUOTE]
