    Ethical Bow Range

    As far as you can shoot for hunting, some bow hunters that should be around 20 yards, if you can not hit your target 10 for 10 in a 3" radius past say 30 yards than go back to 10 yards and start over, having shot a bow the last 30 years and won alot of the local IBO tmt's shoting A class, I myself only hunt w/tails and 40 yards is my spot even if i could shot 0-60 yards on 3-d range no problem thats just where i set my hunting range, always put alot time shoting, then shoot some MORE until you don't have to think about it, only then, and only you will pick your range, hope this helps. may your arrow always hit where your aiming and all the best that comes from sucess!!!

    .280 Remington Load Data?

    I have good results using Hornady sst 154grn bullet in my ruger 77 using IMR 4895 44.5 grn load/ Remingto 700BDL same but IMR 4895 45.3 grn. both guns group 12-3/4" at 200yds. be sure to check the round ,make sure you COL will work,the Hornady COL for this is 3.280 which works perfect in the remimgton, but the ruger I set the COL at 3.268. Hope this helps if I'm not mistaken the same load data will work for the 160's but check your manual to be sure also have used 4350,4198 and RL-17 the 4895 and RL-17 and 4198 all shot small group at 100-200yds I have been working with the RL-17 with good results each gun likes something its just up to us to find that sweet load but the 4895 4350 works for most hunting loads, best of luck happy shotting. great CAL
