Regardless of what anyone else says, I like to keep impact velocities for jacketed lead rifle bullets between 2000 and 2800 fps. As the diameter goes up over .30 caliber, I will lower that some.
Barnes solids, from 2300 to 3000 fps in calibers 7mm and less.
I just don't use BTs anymore except in the .243 for Pronghorn. I want DRT with proper placement and I have not seen that consistently with the BTs. I have a bunch of Accubonds, Siroccos and ELDX. In 7mm, have seen improvement with the AccuBonds, but not enough times to say they are where I will stay.
