I wonder about the effects of these bullets at 200 or +.

Nice report. [/QUO

If leaving the muzzle at 335m/s (1099f/s) , it will arrive at 183m (200yards) after 0.66 seconds with a speed 235m/s (771f/s). So a regular 8g bullet will then have an energy of 222 Joule at that range. Wich is about 50% less than when it leaves the muzzle..
If trying the luck at 400m (437.4yards), it will arrive after 1.75 seconds at a speed of 170m/s and have an energy of 116 Joule. ..about the same as a .22 on 50m (54.7yards). ..still awake?
