[QUOTE="Bravo 4, post: 2107678, member: 8873"] lovec, Curious about bullets for it, specifically ones that have high BC and designed to expand with lower velocity impacts. Guys, I think there have been lots of good cartridge suggestions for short barreled rifles, just remember we are talking 1000 yards with a somewhat diminished muzzle velocity. That means you are going to need a fairly high BC to sustain adequate velocity on target to have reliable bullet performance. Not doubting any of these cartridges can sling a bullet out there and hit a target. We are talking sling an adequate bullet out there to reliably kill. [/QUOTE]
