josh...just josh

Dont get rid of the 50cal Accura just yet. It may shoot some 50x40s very well since it has a faster twist than an Elite...unless you have another 1-28 50 you prefer. Im assuming your Elite is a 1-30 twist.

Sabotsloaders table is a good estimate, give or take a few BC points. IMO the Lehigh 200gr DOA is probably higher than .169 in the real world. Im using the 185gr in mine this year and confident out to 150yards for sure from a good rest.

Not many 200gr bullets are going to have over 1000fpe at 200yards but some of the heavier bullets can. 800fpe is enough IMO for deer or maybe a bit less if the shot is very good. So out to about 225 a good 200gr can get the job done.
