[QUOTE="Michael Eichele, post: 789532, member: 1007"] Thank you for validating my point. You're right when it comes to the trajectory. Faster loads especially with bullets of similar BCs are always flatter. To be honest I have not looked at a trajectory chart/column in years. In long range hunting since the availability of reliable and accurate range finders, there are 3 numbers that are of any concern for downrange performance. 1: bullet energy, 2: Velocity for expansion 3: windage. Windage is the real challenge. Drops are easy. Be it 200" or 350" at 1k, they're both equally as easy to adjust for as long as you know the drops. It's the windage that requires More forgiveness.
