[QUOTE="robbobsam, post: 445264, member: 25432"] I have taken many rabbits over 400yds with my .243 and a hare at over 700yds. If you get your load sorted and the groups are tight then 800yds is very do able on the right day with the right conditions on rabbits, hares and foxes. I find 87 grain V-Max are awesome but are a little inconsistent in length from base to O-Give. The 80 grain Berger varmint is far more consistent and gives me tighter groups, but has a lower BC. Its a trade off, I tend to stick to the bergers now as most of my shooting is under 500yds and the bergers will give me 3.5" groups at 500yds, which is tight enough for rabbits, foxes and hares.
