[QUOTE="Canhunter35, post: 1657268, member: 101677"] Your max effective range is discovered by how far you can repeatedly make 1st round hits. For most of us, it’s inside the ballistic capabilities of our rounds. In terms of numbers from a ballistic calculator, bullet selection is more important than cartridge. My 7rm with 180 elds has enough energy or velocity to be 1000-1150yd elk killing cartridge depending one which parameter you set. I don’t know how the 180s perform yet, but once I have some game down with them I will be able to judge my threshold, but it’s more dependant on conditions than ballistic capability. [/QUOTE]
