[QUOTE="MOJO67, post: 1031737, member: 68532"] I see lots of Wildcats mentioned here. Not sure if the OP is considering them or not. If not, the 270 Wby is tough to beat with a 130 gr bullet started at 3400-3500 fps. Flatter than a 220 Swift and still carries 1700-1800 lbs of energy at 500 yds. Way more than needed to anchor a deer at that range. Additionally, it won't kick the snot of you when you touch one off. That being said, with the popularity/availability of turrets, BDC reticles, etc, flat trajectory has become somewhat overrated. [/QUOTE]
