[QUOTE="Ron Milby, post: 1856176, member: 102814"] My experience with Berger bullets out to 1700 yards, that is the longest range near me, have been great with multiple calibers. I tend to run a faster twist rate when I can. E.g. if the bullet wants a 1-10, I run a 1-9 twist...etc. If I am using an existing barrel with a traditional twist, I shoot a lower grain bullet and push it faster to be ballistically equal with the heavier bullet. E.g. 260 REM and 6.5 Creedmore are both 1-8 twist and I run 130 OTM Hybrids in lieu of 140 Hybrids. Most of my shooting is done between 600-700 ft of altitude. So far, this has worked for me.
