They have both the Protected Point and round nose in 160's SD 328 BC .509 so no slouch in that department. Cooking along at 2600 fps I don't think they would drop below Woodleigh's recommended 1800 fps minimum till about 350-400 or so yards.

Would be a real hammer out of a 26 Nosler or the 6.5x300 Weatherby.
