[QUOTE="Tyler Kemp, post: 254023, member: 6290"] I figure with practice I'd like to shoot game to 1200. I'm already getting pretty good at hitting the little gong up at Paris cold bore. I want the round to be supersonic as far as possible for banging steel. Here at Missouri altitude the new 300 grain Bergers at 2900 fps go subsonic at about 2100 yards, which is plenty far for me. A 7mm-338 Lapua shooting 200 grain Wildcats could be as effective on medium to smaller game, but what would bore life be like? .9 BC at 3300-3400 fps would be a death ray...for how long? I'm not aware of any affordable bullets in 30 caliber with a .8+ BC, other than the HAT's, but I cannot afford to shoot them. [/QUOTE]
