[QUOTE="Kevin Thomas, post: 511104, member: 15748"] Take a look at the BCs of the bullets you're considering, and run them out on a ballistics program. Those that are anywhere near (say +75 fps or so) to the transonic region should get bumped from the list. Working backwards, that will also give you a range of MVs that you can consider minimum for this application. Terminal performance is another matter, and just because a given bullet will stay supersonic at this distance, doesn't necessarily mean that it'll be a good hunting bullet. Ask around a bit on that one, and see if there's any good evidence to support the bullet you're considering. [/QUOTE]
