I setting up a .223 for my son to start shooting out to 600 yards, strictly for paper or steel. Do you find one to be more length tolerant than the other or easier to getting shooting well? I will sacrifice the slight BC drop if the hpbt tends to be more forgiving on load development.

Thanks ahead of time for your thoughts.
