[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 255296, member: 11717"] Gerard, Thanks for joining the thread - it's great to have you here to answer some questions. I'm new to the LR shooting world, but one thing I've discovered is that high BC is what gets bullets way down range. The heavier ones are typically the best sometimes sacrificing velocty for BC and LR momentum. The GS bullets certainly offer a lot of benefits for long range shooters, such as higher velocities, more consistancy (less ES), longer barrel life and lower opening velocities to name a few. The BC's seem to be fairly good, give or take, in some of the HV's. The HP's *appear* to have the streamline design of a higher BC bullet. Would they be a good option for LR hunting? Does the lack of bands mean they would generate higher pressures and lower velocity? The SP bullets are the type of bullet that would get the attention of the LR shooter but as you know they aren't very practicle for hunting. Is there a way to produce similar bullets to the SP, to expand like the HV's and HP's? Thanks in advance, Mark [/QUOTE]
