Re: Question about Wildcat bullets--BCs
I also use 0.740 BC for the 169.5 gr ULD RBBT. Don;t mess with the lighter ones, no reason to for what I use the 270 for.
This BC works very well for muzzle velocities from 3200 to 3400 fps at 3300 ft altitude. I have tested out to 2200 yards with this bullet and from dial up figures this BC holds pretty damn close out to that range so I figure its a good average BC for out to extreme range.
Do not know if the BC drops with lower muzzle velocities but I doubt that it does much.
Again, these BC numbers are what I need to put into my Exbal program to get the predicted bullet flight to match actual bullet flight.
It may not be the pure scientific BC but its what I have to use if I want to hit what I am shooting at at long range.

Re: Question about Wildcat bullets--BCs
Whenever I use JBM to calculate tradjectories, I honestly just ignore it and go w/ G1, seems to work. I know this isnt' the answer that you were looking for, but it's all I got lol! Maybe someone a little more knowledgeable about ballistics can tell us!

Re: Question about Wildcat bullets--BCs
The reasons I also asked about the lighter bullets is for the standard 270 Win.
Anyone having info on those, it would be very helpful...thanks.
