[QUOTE="tbshltn, post: 867432, member: 24023"] I am questioning the listed BC (.430) of this bullet. I am looking for anyone that has used this bullet and shot it at long range to see what number your using. I am using this bullet in a rifle we built to use as a legal Indiana deer rifle. Its called a 358 Grant 1.8. It is based off a WSM case trimmed to 1.8", necked up to .358, with a 40* shoulder and very little body taper. We tested some of these yesterday at 300, 600, and 800 yards and to make the curve match in the ballistic program we have to use 2935 for the velocity. I am having a hard time believing they are going that fast. I did shoot some across a chronograph and came up with about 2850. I have always had better luck at just putting bullets down range at distance to get a true velocity but in this case the number is so high Im questioning it. So I thought maybe the BC is not correct. unfortunately in this chamering there is not a lot of information or guys running it to compare my velocities to so I thought I would ask about other people using this bullet to see if they felt like the BC was correct. Thanks [/QUOTE]
