[QUOTE="TXAoudadKlr, post: 1633776, member: 67390"] As mentioned for being able to take the longest possible shot the heavy, high B.C bullets win the day. If we’re talking say sub 800 yards..... At 800 for my 300AX the 181’s at 3500 vs 215’s at 3260 is really a wash on impact velocity and KE as both are about equal. With the parameters I have, at 800 drop is 11.8 vs 12.5 and wind 5 mph full value is 1.6M vs 1.2M. No real neutering is being done going lighter. Both have their plus and minus just what works best for you. My terrain doesn’t allow for long shots....600+ so I side with the ultra fast and lighter bullet option [/QUOTE]
