When I started with the 6arc, I wanted to limit myself to 300yds or less and move to all copper style bullets (CX,GMX, Hammer ). At the time I was going up to fund raising hunts in Alabama that had a lot of less than 300yd shots. Now I have settled down to one guy in Alabama that has a lot more open area and longer shots (out to 500yds)
On Paper the CX style bullets lose power fast after 300 and don't appear to be the best for longer range.
I'm looking at the Hornady 103ELDX Factory loads , used them this year and was happy with them even though box stated 2800 and the ones I shot were more in the 2750 range. They did a good job and with reloading seem to have room to improve.
What other bullets have you guys used that would work well for what I'm doing?
Thanks
