[QUOTE="HARPERC, post: 1668574, member: 30671"] If the better BC bullets are off the table, then velocity is your best friend. I'd look close at the 70 grain Hammer Hunter for the .243. 3500 fps looks achievable. In the 7-08 I'd look to the 131 Hammer Hunter, you might get to 3200 fps. I didn't run the math, but 1800 fps terminal velocity will be the best indicator for how far. Something more fragile to avoid skipping might be indicated for ground hog. The 6mm BlitzKings 70 grains have worked well for me. Makes a good coyote round as well. [/QUOTE]
