[QUOTE="fordy, post: 3010560, member: 120504"] Gday 308_brandon Welcome from down under Here's a couple of questions that imo need answering before one could make a more definitive answer But I may have missed your information so please accept apology in advance if so First & foremost what is your max range then what's your most likely range ( me personally I then asses different projectile capabilities on the WHOLE spectrum of capabilities of that particular pill not just the good it’s the less than ideal I pay attention to but let’s leave that alone for a touch ) Once you work those out the next step a ballistic chart This is where I vary from a lot of guys I don't rely on what any company gives as a min or maximum velocity impact as what I've found is that's usually flaunt with danger especially when you take the variable resistances on a critter @ various impacts also what happens in a hunting environment not the ideal that some are blessed to achieve Thanks for the update on not a reloader yet & your use of factory ammo That makes it a lot easier to work out when using the triangle some of us speak of if you would like to update your max range & most likely range , the terrain you hunt in also has a bearing if you would like to delve a bit deeper as that also has a lot to consider but the first 2 are mandatory imo before a more definitive recommendation could be given Cheers [/QUOTE]
