[QUOTE="Hugnot, post: 2409253, member: 115658"] The first time I watched bullet wakes going to 600- & 1,000-yard targets I got drawn into it. Playing around with the numbers associated with bullets flying thru air came next. An actual hit on a big rodent (yellow-belly marmot) at over 800 with a 6.5-06 was better than a paper target. Now, deeply into an extended component shortage, it's getting the most ballistic effect, per $ beyond 1/4 mile that has led to fast twist .22-.250's with 75 - 80 grain bullets - more loads per pound of powder & cheaper bullets.
