I am getting a little confused when it comes to loading some 175smks for 1k yards. I have 9 years experience in rifle reloading, but this is my first rodeo for long range. It seems most people are strictly saying that you load to get the appropriate velocity to stay over mach 1.2 and disregard group sizes at close range. I don't have as much time as I would like for load development (most of my free time goes to prep). I would like to use my time wisely. Am I correct at stating that once I find a load with consistent velocities over 2600 fps with the SMKs I would be good to go for a 800 to 1k load, regardless of how they shoot within 300 yards?
