[QUOTE="Gunpowder, post: 2507335, member: 1425"] My opinion, if you want to go from 0 to 1k with one caliber, one load, you are going to have either weak killing power on the far end, or too much on the close shots. There's really no getting around that. Decide what your priority is and then go from there. For me, I've had pretty good luck with an 87 vmax, no faster than 3200, and this will get you to 600 pretty easily and kill when it gets there, and close shots can be messy but not usually with good hits. Kill them before they get to 200 and all is good. The Hdy 87 bthp is a seriously accurate bullet but doesn't offer the bc or quite the killing power of the vmax. Beyond that I have no experience to offer, but I'd want something like a 108 starting as fast as I could get them, I'm thinking 6-284 type of thing. [/QUOTE]
