[QUOTE="IdahoCTD, post: 1033285, member: 13110"] I've shot a lot of rockchucks and a few deer and antelope with a 150BT out of a .308 Baer and a 30-8mm mag at 3550 to 3650fps. I have a 30-378 Weatherby Imp. that will shoot 150's over 4000fps. My 6.5-300wm will shoot 123 Amax's 3500fps and is pretty hard on chucks too. I also have a 30-338 Lapua Imp that is shooting 3330fps with 230 Bergers and I'm sure it would push 150's near or over 4000fps. A 300RUM with 150gr Barnes TSX, Nosler E-tip, or maybe a 150 Accubond at 3800+ with a long barrel would be hard to beat to 500yds for trajectory as well. With the E-tip at 3800fps it would be 2.4" high at 200yds, zeroed at 300yds, and 15.7" low at 500yds. You could dang near hold on hair of a deer the whole way. An elk would be easy to hold on hair.
