[QUOTE="BrentM, post: 901876, member: 61747"] Scope. 4-20 power with 50mm objective or better. Since this is long range forum I assume you want to shoot LR, so the 6mm bullet is great place start, 243 is hard to beat. 6.5 in a 260 or creed would be awesome too. If you want a smaller caliber then the 22 are good, of course, and probably killed more yotes than any caliber. 22-250 is that standard, I prefer the 220 swift. My current choice is a 204. BC of the 40 gr pill is quite high at .275 for a Vmax and .285 for a Blitzking . My 204 with a 22" tube is shooting 3780. I have 2 new barrels at 26" each that I will test very soon. Hoping for close to 3900. The amount of down range thump is impressive for such a small caliber. However, the bullet is affected by wind, way more so than the 6mm. I have been shooting 500-700 yards with the 204 lately and my wife. She loves it, I love it, fun rifle, easy to shoot, and freakishly accurate. We have been shooting balloons for fun and working on wind skills. [/QUOTE]
