[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 1279429, member: 87243"] That is good to know, especially for places like california that are going to be limited to non toxic only here shortly. For me personally though, I would not use Barnes bullets for any long range much over 400-500 or so yards, the relatively low BC of their bullets is a significant limiting factor for wind drift once the ranges stretch out, as well as speed and energy. And with all the quality long range bullets being produced today, barnes doesn't really make my list for a long range bullet, though I know many people use them. So because of this, the low end velocity was never much of a consideration, as I would only use them inside of the recommended 2000 fps range anyway. Still, very useful information for many, thank you for sharing. [/QUOTE]
