[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1518259, member: 12995"] Precisely. But, there is also a 2nd positive... Despite the slower muzzle velocity, it will hold and retain more energy (hit harder) at farther distances. I've been shooting Berger 210 and 215 bullets in my .308 Win. for many years. Even though they're only leaving the 24" barrel at around 2500 FPS MV, their elevation drop (even out to 1000) is holding its own against 140 grain 6.5mm bullets in similar sized cartridges, and beating them in wind drift and ft. lbs. of energy downrange.
