[QUOTE="Guest, post: 77577"] d-a, at 600 yards, do you want to hit a large mulie or whitetail with a 110 grain bullet or a 165 grain bullet? Don't you think it matters that the diameter of the .308 bullet is 20% larger than the .257? Which will be more accurate at 600 yards? Your methodology could make a case for a even smaller calibers. At long range you want to anchor the animal. Like LB said earlier, "...the fact that it will work is beside the point..." If I hit a deer with a 17HRM right thru the heart, will it live? No. Does that mean I should do it? I'll take a .308 with a 168 match king and you take a .257 with any bullet you want and you can help me field dress my deer and put him on my truck. [/QUOTE]
