Default RE: which is more powerful?

I think the numbers you are discussing are with 26 inch, custom barrels are they not?

The 140 Grain load is a bit of a stretch unless barrel length is at play. The load that seemed to be most out of the norm was actually the 160 grain.

I just mentioned the 140 was also high to point out that the program he was using to calculate downrange energies do not add up his stated muzzle velocity. At 3350 FPS the downrange energies@ 450yds are 1906 FPE not the 2026 he stated based on the .485 BC of the Nosler BT. This is less than the 06 load that his post was trying to better.

PS: Just remember how his post started "Not to stirr this up anymore" I have a feeling DMurphy is cracking up that we are butting heads by beating on this dead horse again.
