[QUOTE="noel carlson, post: 901388, member: 16138"] Rocky Mountain, The CE has an unusually long bearing surface, and a commensurately short nose utilizing a simple radius ogive. It is an extremely conservative design. The ZA has a good BC from standard rifling due to multiple factors, but primarily in consequence to a low band count (four), of which the forward one is reduced drag (aerodynamic trick using micro-grooves). From a ZA barrel, the projectile will not have any band surfaces exposed to the oncoming airflow. "How do you think your drive bands will compare to others on the market with the reduction of drag and BC at extreme range?"... Nothing else on the market compares when the ZA barrel/projectile are used in combination with each other... not even close. [/QUOTE]
