[QUOTE="nralifer, post: 2677504, member: 94556"] Not really. People like heavier bullets and the 6.8 Western will push that bullet considerably faster and with a better BC than the Berger 170 gr out of the commercially available twist barrels. Penetration on game with either the 140 or 150 bullet should be much better than the Berger especially at high impact velocities. What cartridge did you use in your simulation and what muzzle velocity did you predict for the 150? My guess from the 6.8 W a 3200fps should be achievable. The 140 from a 270 Win should be around 2900-3050 fps. Depends on the powder a lot. Superformance is quite good in the 270Win. [/QUOTE]
