[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 559963, member: 30902"] Check your calculator inputs and run it again. IF you could push the 180 at 2900 FPS, hornady's calculator shows : Muzzle 2900, 100-2758, 2000-2621, 300-2488, 400-2359, 500-2233, 600-2112, 700-1994, 800-1880, 900-1771, 1000-1666fps. Energy at 1,000yds is 1,110 so roughly 1,100yds would be your limit using the 1000lbs energy on impact rule. More realisitically you can push the 168gr at 2,900fps and you're down to 1,578fps/953ft-lbs at 1,000yds so you're breaking the 1,000ft-lbs energy line at around 950-975yds. [/QUOTE]
