[QUOTE="James Jones, post: 187452, member: 8843"] Well since you already have a 6mmAi , you will be gaining very little with the 240 over that one especialy in the terms of terminal performance I highly doubt that the slight speed increase will add much to the range past what the 6mmAi does , maybe 150yds , maybe. Seeing how you have a 6mm and a 30 cal , I would go with a 6.5-06 Ackley , you can drive a 140gr VLD or A-max bullet to 3200fps out of a 28" barrel and balisticaly speeking thats pretty awsome , and will likely make your 300 Jarret look bad. It'll be carrying ALOT more energy out to 1000yds than an 6mm can , and it'll have longer barrel life It may just prove to be the only gun you need !! I killed a deer this year at 944yds with a 140gr Berger VLD run out at close to 2900 fps , blew right through and deer diden't go 50yds. So I know that the extra 200-300fps that the 06 improved can add will definatly do the job out past 1000yds. [/QUOTE]
