[QUOTE="ss7mm, post: 234764, member: 5"] I've loaded them up to about 3400 fps but the load I use that's the most accurate is just under 3200fps. I'd have to look but I believe it's just barely over 1 second at 1000 yards. They get down range in a hurry and then the neat part is the delay before the sound of the hit gets back. I've had the same delay of sound return from the hit on both deer and elk. It's neat to see the animal get hammered and then hear the smack of the hit.;) It was windy for both hit shots but the second had winds at about 15-20 mph and the sound of the hit didn't come through like in the first one. The shots were taken in 2 different canyons and wind direction was different in both canyons. The big 200 is great in windy canyon stuff. We were also shooting a 270 AM w/140 Accubonds and the wind moved them around noticeably more than the 200 Wildcats. [/QUOTE]
