[QUOTE="HARPERC, post: 2160475, member: 30671"] Only a couple of kills myself Mike, but the last one was an antelope at about 90 yards, 124 grain Hammer Hunter, MV 3960. It did get a piece of the off shoulder, but really not the kind of damage one would expect. I've seen more with 6mm, .25-06 .30-.06 at more range. I kind of started out with the theory of heavier bullets, and have changed opinion along the way. I don't worry about fast twist for the heavier Hammer's example is in my 6mm my next order will be the 70 grain Hammer Hunter. I don't consider myself necessarily a long range hunter, but that will work for me. If I remember correctly you mentioned a 6mm/280AI it should get you downrange in a hurry. Good Luck! [/QUOTE]
