Flounder, velocity is a big equalizer... Consider shooting that 200 grain bullet @ 2300 fps as I am with 120 T7 and the factor changes more.

The 300 grain bullet was suggested also.. You might be surprised when you comput that with @ 1950 fps, even with a lower BC. Deep Curl is .233 but most other than pointy bullets would be in the area of .200 -.220.

Plus the velocity helps keep the FPE up there with those heavy connicals...
