[QUOTE="LeddSlinger, post: 1036406, member: 65338"] I agree that using heavy-for-caliber bullets in any given bore size is the way to go for hunting. You will sacrifice a little speed and trajectory at the shorter ranges, but the penetration will always be better. Then if a situation arises where a long shot is needed, that's where the heavier bullet BC's really shine because you end up having more speed in the long run downrange which not only gives flatter trajectory, but when coupled with the extra weight equates to a good bit more energy on the target.
