Not sure what you consider 'long range' but I consider 200 yards my 'stop and think about it' range... I will shoot a regular 250/60 grain bullet to 180 yards and really not think much about. 300 grain bullets will hold more velocity and energy out beyond, but if you look at the 200 grain bullets they will match or even be slightly better than the 300's - the only problem as I see it is the external effects in flight on a light 200 grain bullets is greater than the heavier 250/300 grain bullets. Velocity of the lighter bullets will also over-ride some of the external effects...

IMO
