Not the flattest, but is pretty impressive nevertheless. And a relatively easy wildcat to load for.

Have spent just a little time behind this cartridge now. Rifle was built by TS Custom. KS1 Adjustable Stock Bartlein 7.5 twist 24” Rem Varmint Lone peak Fuzion Alpine cut M5 with hinged floor plate March FX 4.5-28X52 I’ve only tested H4831SC so far because I like how consistent and clean...

I was having a conversation with a fellow member here over "flat shooting cartridges" because I've been in search of a flat shooting cartridge/bullet combination for coyotes.

I'm currently shooting a 25-06 which gives me a MPBR on a 4" target of 298yds with a 115vld. I'm switching to an 80gr barnes ttsx to see what kind of speeds I can get and hopefully stretch that MPBR a little bit more. When this barrel goes south I will probably go back with a 25-06AI or 25sherman.

I know there are some wildcats out there that could possibly be "flat-er" and a realistic choice for coyotes and would like to hear yalls opinions.

I'm not looking to neck down a 308win to 17cal or run a 110vmax in a 300rum or anything wild like that. I'd like to keep powder consumption as low as possible. Barrel life isn't a huge concern but it like to get 800 rounds out of it.

What are yalls thoughts?

Don't know what the point blank range was, but my 6.5-300 WWH only required 19 MOA to go from a 100 yard zero to dial on at 1,000.
