[QUOTE="Shawn Carlock, post: 532658, member: 4"] Over the last few weeks we have been testing the Gen 2 bullets out to and past subsonic ranges from a standard 338 Edge. In good conditions even after passing the sound barrier we were still able to hold 1 moa or better at distances out to 2318 yards, quite impressive (88 moa elevation by the way). We even tested at 2578 yards, I had to dial in all the elevation in the scope with a 20 moa rail (70 moa), turn the scope down to 11x to double the reticule caliberation and hold 40 moa for 110 moa total. I wasn't able to hold moa but it was pretty close at 1.2-1.3 moa, not bad for almost 1 1/2 miles. When was the last time your spotter call your come ups at "come up 1.83 degrees"? Windage was interesting at 2578 yards, 1 moa coriolis, 2.5 moa spin drift and 7.5 moa wind for a whopping total left correction of 24.5 feet. based on previous experience with 300 SMK's these are exceptional bullets for extreme long shooting.
