[QUOTE="lancetkenyon, post: 2747145, member: 68875"] 105 Hyb or 115 VLD TARGET. The slightky thicker jackets hold up better at top speeds, but still work very well down to 1800fps impact velocities. Or, you could do two loads. Add a 101 Hammer Hunter to the stable for the shots under 500 yards, and use the 105 Hyb load for 400+ yard shots. I have a lot of high velocity rifles that use two loads in this way. They have worked really well for us. Here is a 105 Hyb @ 3188fps MV on a pronghorn at 460 yards. Impact velocity was somewhere around 2600fps. Buck dropped at the shot without a twitch. Broke front leg right at the elbow and a rib, lungs and heart were Jello, stopped just barely under offside skin as seen in photos. Blew the hair off the skin.
