[QUOTE="Michael Eichele, post: 30614, member: 1007"] On a more positive note, (mostly for those 284 fans and those who despise the 284) is something I have always enjoyed and admired about the .284" bullet is that bullet weight for bullet weight (7mm vs 30) is that the 7mm is typically longer and while we have exhausted the argument about BC's and MV it is a commonly overlooked fact that longer projectiles penetrate deeper. Ever tried to shoot through a sand bag with a rifle??? If you had you would know that a small arms rifle will not go through a typical sand bag. Ever tried to shoot an arrow through a sand bag?? The right bow and arrow combo will completely penetrate a sand bag. Why? Because of the length of the arrow. As the head enters, the the energy from the tail pushes it through. When the tail is burried, the energy from the head pulls the tail through. Its the same thing with bullets. Longer projectiles penetrate further. [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img] [/QUOTE]
