[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 340017, member: 11717"] My bad. I've run the 300 SMK numbers before and thought it did a little better for down range velocity. But your numbers are correct. Sierra doesn't advertise an expanding velocity for the SMK's, but I would hesitate to use it on large animals at less than 1700 fps. My guess is that probabaly 90% of Alaskan moose are taken between sea level and 2000' elevation, so in this case I would rate this rifle shooting an SMK @ 2750 as a 1000 yd gun. That's just me.
