[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 2418739, member: 30902"] I've put 7 years now into exploring mono's. "The Best" is always a relative term. To me the "Best" is the bullet I can always count on to perform predictably in the air and when it hits the target. So far, I have yet to find anything that outperforms the Peregrine VLR's but I'm much more particular about terminal performance than most seem to be. I'll gladly give up some BC for that kind of performance because let's face it, while I like to be prepared to shoot a game animal at 600-1,000 and have had some success even beyond that, 90-95% of my shooting on game is going to be between 300-600yds so the, "Highest BC in it's Class" which was the big LR marketing term a few years ago doesn't mean that much. Beyond that I may have to compensate more for drop and windage but let's face it, with today's ballistic calculators that's just not a big deal. If you're shooting MPBR faster and flatter wins the race but even there BC is of little consequence if any in practical terms. [/QUOTE]
