[QUOTE="Gone Ballistic, post: 1768142, member: 26477"] After shooting 250 grain loads with the substantial amount of drop I desired to find a flatter shooting load to serve the same purpose I feel you are trying to do. My solution was the 180 grain Nosler Accubond behind IMR 4831 which provided a muzzle velocity of 3318fps. My longest kill was at 707yds but after looking at the bullet afterwards, it had very little expansion. It performed excellent on a cow elk at 528yds, however, and was superb at ranges between 130-350yds on mule deer. [/QUOTE]
