[QUOTE="RDM416, post: 595101, member: 3745"] LTLR makes a good point on the reduced recoil when using the CE 225s. Recoil is significantly reduced from the 300 Bergers. With the high velocity and high bc (.67 works for my program to match range results) the 225 outperforms the Berger or 300 SMK in drop and wind drift out to 1000 yards. It is still the winner in drop on out to over 1500 yards and only marginally worse for drift. You do give up some energy and "knock down" of the fragile Bergers and SMKs but all in all a pretty impressive bullet. I can't wait to get my 338 AM in (in the next month or so I hope) and see just how much over 4000 fps I can push the 225s. Should be fun! :D:Dgun) [/QUOTE]
