[QUOTE="Stgraves260, post: 507302, member: 19988"] The only way to get the B.C. up in the 30 cal round is with a 200 grain bullet. Way to heavy imo. Thats why the 260 shines over the 308. (260) 130grn berger .550 B.C. 2900+ fps or (308) 210grn 630 B.C. 2350 fps. Bullet wont perform under 1800fps. It wont mushroom. 1800 fps at 400yrds. The 260 130grn 1800fps at 800yrds. But the bullet will still expand at 1600fps witch this round still acheaves at 1000yrds. But barley. The 308 is still a good round. It has proven it self for years. You have to do your research on the ammo you tend to use. How fast does it have to travel to expand? Oh and the wind drift for these 2 rounds at 1000yrds is over 20". Wind speed 10mph. ( The 155grn Berger bullet . B.C. is .439. for the 308. ) [/QUOTE]
