[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 550637, member: 2011"] I like shootin' and messing with numbers. First thought is bullet weight is proportional to bullet weight which is "usually" proportional to bearing surface length. One or the other method should be decent enough. For shootin' tests I'd have fun with the following: Sort brass to same weight. Weight powder as usual. Load one round with each bullet weight. (8 loads) Seat each with same base to ogive length. Arrange 8 targets @ 200 yds to be able to shoot 1 shot at each target. Keep shade over the rifle and shoot with sufficient between shots to cool barrel. Chrono each shot. Carefully assess all information. My guess that you won't see much of a trend in any given direction. But hey it was fun and you'll know that you know. Have fun [/QUOTE]
