"Bullets, not headstamps, blah blah blah" etc being what it is, ELDX, ELDM, TMK, etc have an optimum velocity window. Keep your projectile in that window, and you'll be good to go. Your 30-06 will work splendidly for this job.

Also, for what it's worth, MPBR, "Holding hide", whatever, generally always comes up short against dialing when you're shooting long range. Yes, 350m is a long shot, especially when you've just climbed a coulee, and the adrenaline is flowing.

Thanks for the tips
