[QUOTE="goosepit, post: 582381, member: 32076"] thanks for some good advice,think I will jump up to maybe 154 interbond,sst,162sst or 168 vld and try some 160 grain noslers thanks for your advice and see which one I can get some tight groups on paper at 200 yards,my thougts are if can get tight groups at that distance then the longer shots will fall in there place,if have right adjustments in scope wind ect and shooter does there part. thanks again just wanted some thought on heavier weight bullets so have little more energy out there at longer distances. this long range shooting is adictive. was getting bored with normal hunting distances 0- 300 yards. but I new when was extending the shots that my normal loads of 120 and 139 grain bulletts was not enough energy on long shot just from the way that animals were reacting to shots. they were dead to rights but they went alot further after shots even when shots wer placed perfectly. and shock value was not there when field dressed them in field damage was not there like 300 yard shots and closer lungs were destroyed at those ditances. but longer shots there was whole lot less damage in boiler room with light bulletts at the longer shots past 400 yard mark. might even build new long range rifle? not for sure but I have the bug now and who knows might jump right up to one of the big 30's or 338's. by the posts on here looks to be exciting shooting world with all new caliber wildcats that seem to be capable of some long shots with some massive damage on game. thanks again for your time to answer ?'s [/QUOTE]
