[QUOTE="liltank, post: 455934, member: 13275"] As far as your comment about the 168's, yes speed is really the only advantage at those distances. However you go beyond 900yrds the consistency starts to slip especially if you use 168SMK's. The Bergers, A-max, and Nosler Custom Comps will do okay at 1000 yards, but they are really running out of steam compared to the 175's. I have not, but those that shoot them have good results. They are going to shoot very similar to Berger as far as seating is concerned. The Hornady BTHP 178's have a BC of .530. The disadvantage to JLK is the wait time on the bullets. You have to order well in advance of when you plan to actually use them. Tank [/QUOTE]
