True, but just like bigger bores, not nearly as much as most people believe. If you are using a rangefinder and know the trajectory of your rifle you can make hits with any caliber.


Certainly agree...IF/WHEN you have time to 'rangefind'.

In Southern WT woods, we often don't have time to...
use binos...
range....
twist dials...
aim...
shoot.

With a 400 yd MPBR you spend LESS critical time. I admit that I'm spoiled to 'FAST' cartridges for that reason. I've been using 400 yd MPBR since the 1980s.

It really is hard to leave a process that works and you've been using so long. Call me 'mossback', set in my ways, or Hard Headed. grin

Thanks Phil, I always enjoy your input and respect you.
