[QUOTE="VLD Pilot, post: 2049979, member: 103947"] Gosh I'd have to say the 131 BJ bullet for beyond 600 yards. Only problem is, if it's a factory barrel, it's too long and heavy. Needs a 7-8 twist barrel. With the 131 in a 257 Weatherby mag, I'd say 3300-3350 is doable. Given its .330-.340 BC (.650-.670) I'd say it's better than most if not all 140-150 class 6.5 bullets thru a .284 parent case cartridge. Out to 500 or less, the lighter 110 ELDs or 115 VLDs. They'll definitely go further but the trajectory will be much more noticable. [/QUOTE]
