[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 10359, member: 313"] Yes - by heavier I was refering to bullets from70-80gr. I have not looked at the ballistic charts for the real heavys (105-107gr) because my 12" twist will not stabilize them. The 243AI will shoot a 55gr B-Tip bullet in excess of 4,000 ft/sec. If you do a few comparisons you will notice that this bullet will be flatter and more resistent to the effects of wind than most heavy but slower bullets out to about 750yds. You would have to check on the VLD's but I doubt that they would beat the 55 grainers at their far superior velocity. VH [/QUOTE]
