[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 1445451, member: 7999"] With 600y being the outside range I see more advantage to the 180g bullets than the heavies. We have loaded many 300 rums with the 181g Hammer Hunters and they will reliably run in the mid 3450fps +. This gives the ability to hold hair out to 400y with a 300y zero. Only a small adjustment at 600y. Pretty tough to beat this combo out to nearly 1000y. After 1000 then the heavy slow bullets will start to shine. Some worry about close range with the fast bullets. A bullet like ours will not cause an issue. They will perform basically the same from the muzzle to 1800fps. No worries about blow ups at short range or being too hard for low vel impacts. Hammers will retain the same weight regardless of impact speed or shoot placement. Fast flat guns are cool! Steve [/QUOTE]
