[QUOTE="Clark, post: 1068996, member: 6600"] David Tubb is great at wind doping and trajectory and competed in palma matches with 2150 fps 250 gr SMK from a 308. I am terrible at wind doping and trajectory and shoot ruminants with 3400 fps 140 gr NBT from a 7mmRM. There is an analogy in motorcycles. Pros do best with high revving peaky engines that they are always shifting. The best lap times for rank amateur will be with a slow broad torque band engine. In 2014 with a new rifle, I sorted out the drop chart, shot three groups and rated myself to hunt out to 500 yards: 1) 1.0" 3 shot group at 100 yards = 1.0 moa 2) 3.6" 3 shot group at 450 yards = 0.8 moa 3) 7.2" 3 shot group at 550 yards = 1.3 moa If I fired 1,000 rounds at long range per year, I probably would move up to one of my 300 win mag rifles, but the 7mm really shoots flat out to 500.
