[QUOTE="Jakeweb09, post: 2070516, member: 113122"] I’m not saying a creedmoor is the same as a prc by any stretch, but a prc shooting 156 Berger’s at 3000 FPS is right at the minimum velocity for expansion on a Berger..on a bull elk at 1000 yards... not for me. A well placed shot will do it but at those ranges why not have some more security. However out of a 6.5-300 weatherby it’ll still be cooking. But a 140vld at 3000 at 1000 yards is under the 1800 FPS that Berger says For reliable expansion. With that cartridge you’ll be fine though. [/QUOTE]
