[QUOTE="Joe King, post: 668518, member: 47325"] Yea if your comparing a heavy round nose bullet to a lighter bullet of VLD design, the lighter bullet will out perform the heavier bullet in regards to external ballistics (duh). That's stepping away from the nature of the discussion with that though by comparing strawberries to lemons for sweetness. It's been proven out time and again that 2 bullets of the same basic shape (design) differing only in weight, launched with the same muzzle energy the heavier bullet will over take the velocity advantage of the lighter bullet down range with, energy, wind drift and eventually drop.
