[QUOTE="noel carlson, post: 901590, member: 16138"] Hello Paul, I think that it would be against forum rules to respond publicly. Montana, I found a good ISO-photograph of five CE 375's laid out in order of ascending weight: - 325 gr. - 350 gr. - 375 gr. - 400 gr. - 425 gr. They differ in only one dimension... the bearing surface (as I defined it). The 325 grain had nice proportions generally, but tail length was less than one caliber. Photos, even when using a macro lens, can distort an image... but I am being generous in estimating the simple radius-ogive nose at ~2.7 calibers. That is not bad, but nothing to get excited about. It will generate significantly higher wave drag than the ZA375/6.4-M. That is just a plain physical reality. [/QUOTE]
