[QUOTE="bailey1474, post: 120180, member: 3249"] [ QUOTE ] As for your speed of 3500 fps, you are past the point of diminishing return. With that speed, your supersonic range is actually 50 yards LESS than at 3300 fps. The faster you push it, the faster it will slow down. [/ QUOTE ] I'm not trying to stir up a hornets' nest here, but this just doesn't make a lick of sense. Given the same bullet and same conditions, all forces acting on the two will be equal. That extra 200 fps can't just dissapear and the slower bullet can't gain anything once it leaves the bbl. I'm no physicist, but this makes no sense to me. [/QUOTE]
