Indeed. Increased velocity not only helps with a flatter trajectory, but increased delivered energy, and also less time to target, reducing wind drift.


Hey ! You got an AMEN !! here. I've butted my head against that rock round here. As you mentioned the principle the 7-08 is just as good as the 280 and the 280 is just as good as the 7 Mag. ET.AL. etc. ( 300 Savage ----- 300 WM)

Time of flight is totally lost on some even tho wind drift gets its mention.
