[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 447555, member: 25383"] I honestly think that when talking 500 to 1000 yards, you really need to be thinking about a 6.5 or a 7mm. Nobody wins 1000 yard shoots with a 6mm anything these days (actually nothing new). You want one of those .600+ B/C bullets. At 500 yards a 6mm Berger 88 would be the round to use (assuming the throat and barrel were cut for it) on a windless day. But even then a good 6.5 would be better. If I were shooting a 500 to 1000 yard groundhog shoot, I'd probably go with a 6.5x47, or a 6.5x.284 short (-.125"). gary [/QUOTE]
