[QUOTE="ajhardle, post: 749350, member: 49861"] I would guess the 90 has a thinner jacket to get such a high b.c. A more dense material usually makes better projectiles. Less copper, more lead = heavier bullet. (I hope someone who knows more about this bullet can give some input???) It's a shame they come apart, considering how Berger says the thick jackets of their target line have never came apart in competition. I guess you can't have have your 22 cal cake and eat it at 3800fps too. -just an interesting note, a 90 gr VLD@3779fps would have ~ the same drift as a 230gr hybrid@3000fps, and at sea level, they both go subsonic near 1 mile. That has my gears turning. [/QUOTE]
