[QUOTE="packgoatguy, post: 1556505, member: 27192"] 280 AI added to the sheet. And yes, based on ranking these by which one goes the furthest before dropping below 1600fps, it does beat the 300WM... by about 85 yards. It also drifts and drops slightly less with that better BC. However, the 300WM rates a 25 on the KPS scale (about like a 44mag pistol using low recoil BB ammo at point blank range) whereas the 280AI rates about a 14 on the KPS score (about like a 10mm pistol at point blank range) at that same 1600fps (1100-1200 yard range). So, depending on the wallop you want to put on your elk at that yardage... you make the call. [/QUOTE]
