[QUOTE="Engineering101, post: 965970, member: 63138"] The light bulb is beginning to come on. Since people were saying that these ABLRs are good in slower rifles I ran some numbers. The 210 ABLRs have an advertised BC of 0.730 which I don't believe so I knocked it down to 0.630 and looked up a suitable load. You can get 2,640 fps out of a 24" barrel 30-06 with that bullet. My 30-06 has a 26 inch barrel so I should be good with that number. Running that forward to where velocity drops to 1,300 fps it turns out to be 1,585 yards with 790 ft lbs. That means a 30-06 with these bullets is now a 1,500 yard deer gun. I can leave my RUMs at home if I just put a big scope on the 06! [/QUOTE]
