[QUOTE="elkaholic, post: 765318, member: 13833"] Cow boy....I think you are on the right track and doing your homework on this subject. Both are important for the reasons you list. If you do error, bigger is better but you can do a lot with a 30 that shoots a bullet with a high b.c. and expands at low velocity. This is why I started making my own bullets several years back. I shoot a 30/375 S.I. that shoots my 208 SXR at around 3050' with a G1 b.c. of .345. The bullet will expand down to around 1200/sec and I feel it will do the trick on elk to 1500-1600 yards......Rich [/QUOTE]
