[QUOTE="65WSM, post: 1206779, member: 9551"] Thanks for the help MachV with the 40 grs. That is the kind of knowledge I was seeking. The disadvantage to the 75-77 gr bullets is that the recoil knocks the view of the impact out of the scope. I can't see where they hit. I have .17 Rem, 20 PPC, .219 Donaldson Wasp, 6mm PPC (Miroku replica Highwall) working right now but none of those are useful beyond 300. Incidently, I regularly shoot my .224 wildcat at 550 yards. I am convinced that the plastic tips on the Hornady 75 A-Max and the Sierra 77 "tipped" MKs melt away and reduce the accuracy that the hollow points show. I do best with the Sierra 80 MK that is uniformed on the tip with the Montour County Rifles tool. [/QUOTE]
