[QUOTE="BryanLitz, post: 608976, member: 7848"] 1.52" long 170 grains Recommended twist 1:8.5" Estimated G1 BC: 0.703 Estimated G7 BC: 0.360 Note these are estimates, actual performance is typically within +/- 5% of estimates. Topshot, If the extra long bullet doesn't cause a copper fouling problem on long strings of fire typical of match shooting, there's no reason it wouldn't be a good choice for a match bullet. Berger's match and hunting bullets are made to the same precision standards. As for an upper speed limit, that remains to be seen. Considering it's made on the same thickness jacket as the 180 VLD hunting, it should be able to withstand velocities similar to the 180 VLD's max limit. I'm not even sure what that is; would estimate 3300-3400...? -Bryan [/QUOTE]
