[QUOTE="Timnterra, post: 1130064, member: 55944"] I doubt that the Sierra bullet is going to expand at all below 2200fps. I think you have to give somewhere when trying to make a bullet "do it all". Ultra high BC is good but there is no use for it in hunting if the bullet will not expand at long range. If your only talking target shooting then BC is everything that's why HPBT designs dominate there. However the more I think about the more I like the advertised "all range" performance of this bullet. One cannot go hunting knowing exactly the range he will end up shooting. For the last three years I've gone out with the intention of killing game at long range but never had opportunities to take a shot beyond 300yds. I like knowing the bullet will perform well at any range and associated velocity. [/QUOTE]
