A laser beam shoots flat. Everything else requires trajectory. Light weight high velocity = flat shooting to 300 yds. and a pile of trajectory to get to 500 yds. Flat shooting is reserved for wind proof bullets.

Allen Magnums shooting long for caliber bullets. Case size alone doesn't make a flat shooter, a long bullet in a fast twist barrel will make the 257 Wby with a 1:10 twist look like a 30-30.
