[QUOTE="Raudy707, post: 2950751, member: 105681"] I don't blame you there. We match the Bergers to the terrain we hunt. When we hunt the timber and shot are 25-300 yds I shoot a 338 win mag with 250 grain bullets. My daughter shoots a 308 win with 165 Accubonds and my son shoots 308 win with 165 Scirocco bullets. Seems counter intuitive to shoot smaller calibers at farther distance but it's all about pinpoint accuracy and fighting the wind with a high BC bullet. We don't all shoot Bergers. My son and nephews shoot 168 grain Accubond LRs. They have been the amazing! My dad and brother shoot Hammers. My buddy shoots Sierra's. The bullet is important but not as important as the placement of course. [/QUOTE]
