    In the moments leading up to taking the shot I like to glance at my solution including the inputs, I never use quick calc with the swipe feature.

    I freakin' hate that screen too, never use it.

    "Show chart" is often used to find a winner of an argument around here, otherwise not really used in the field either

    To prove even a 223 is better than a 270?

    And this, Cam, is why you will never be invited to dinner.

    Hahahaha and btw it's 7mm08 vs .270 around here. The .223 is in a class of it's own

    Shot placement is everything when the impact velocity is the that slow! At that range I would be using 208 amax. That is of course if they work well in your rifle. Obviously the goat didn't mind though!
    Well done

    Yup with the load used in the video the 168 gr projectile goes subsonic at around 1150 yards so really i only use it out to 1000 yrds.

    For some reason the 168 Amax seems able release a huge amount of it's energy...even at low velocity.
