[QUOTE="toddc, post: 1276268, member: 4566"] I dig that 100%. I'm just beginning to think we may not be able to drive the 195 class stuff fast enough without getting really crazy to match what the 180 class stuff will do. A 180 7mm is pretty long, 195+ is really long. Yeah a 195 MAY give you 10% less wind at 1 mile but the 180 will likely outclass it in 43 other areas on the way to a 1 mile wind drift advantage. Not saying I have ran all the #s enough to be certain but we are definitely nearing the point of mixed returns in the 195 class area. I need to try some in my SAUM and see what it will drive them to. It will drive the 175s at 3150. If it will shove a 195 at 2900 it MAY make sense. The current crop of 180 class stuff is just so well balanced its tough to beat without some compromise. I like the idea of the extra weight on game also, I guess the way the 175ELD-X is shooting has got me thinking about balance and less about hassle. [/QUOTE]
