Point taken.
It's a cognitive-dissonance thing for me.
I'd not load a big 7 magnum such that it can be easily beaten by (say) a .308 with hunting bullets... or a measly 7mm-08 with a 140 NBT running
five hundred fps slower, in terms of wind drift. It'd be like putting a throttle regulator on a Ferrari to make it slower than a Camry. But, if the Ferrari is just going to be used for trips to Safeway, I must concede the point.
I'm really resisting the urge to toss up a chart showing just how bad the 140 AF does in this regard. Must... not...post...gack...chart....
