[QUOTE="HARPERC, post: 523118, member: 30671"] I don't have much recent experience with .25 calibers. I've just stared a wolf rifle project, and the arbitrary criteria I used comparing cartridges/bullets effective range was a terminal velocity of 2000 fps. My reasoning being I'm reasonably certain of some bullet expansion. Using 3fingervic's numbers this gets you to 400 yards. If you'll go to some of the bullet manufacturing sites and look at the effect velocity has on expansion it will give you some perspective on what to expect. [/QUOTE]
