See the dope card - this load carries your recommended 2200 FPS to 400 yards and over a ton of energy to 500. and if you compare the trajectories to that long range masterpiece, the 6.5 Creedmoor, you'll see they are identical. I must caveat that this dope is run for 7,300 feet MSL, where I will be hunting elk. It'd be "saggier" at lower elevations.

Thanks again for the inputs and keep 'em coming.

That 300yd MPBR looks awesome. I didn't know the Whelen was adept at that with 225's. I've had excellent luck with H4895, but I'm not getting 2800fps. May have to try the 2000-MR. I also hunt elk 6500-7500ft AMSL usually.
