[QUOTE="257 Blackjack, post: 1566564, member: 106220"] Out of the same parent case the 131 will come out ahead in Wind, Trajectory, and Energy for about 1500 yards to a mile in every instance we have looked at it with actual achievable muzzle velocity data. I knew this would be the case in the general sense, the 131 ACE is one of the most efficient for weight copper and lead bullets ever released to the market, if not the lowest with the lowest G7/I7 form factor. The 150 smk is a great design but pushed from the same parent case due to achievable muzzle velocities it will take serious range for the 150 smk to catch up. As I mentioned on another thread, our "Claims" of 0.330-0.333 G7 were simply reported test data. The market has affirmed that these numbers were in fact cautiously low. Most competitors are reporting 0.345-350 G7. There are two major reasons for this - #1. in the production run we focused on getting the noses sharper and #2 our boat tail is the longest-for-caliber of any we have measurements on. When Blackjack Bullet #2 comes out this year, we will have to endure another round of healthy skepticism from the market. : ) [/QUOTE]
