[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 1131522, member: 4191"] Thanks for that explanation on the differing ogive lengths. I can see that difference in ogive shapes in their website photo now that you've pointed out the design difference. I rechecked their web site. The BCs are now consistent at both locations. Their webmaster employee must have caught the inconsistency and corrected it - johnny on the spot! The .308 212gr ELD-X is now shown with a G7-BC of 0.336 at both web pages. And the 220gr ELD-X is now shown with a G7-BC of 0.325 at both web pages. So the 220gr has a slightly lower G7-BC value (0.011 less), which would be expected with the shorter ogive and the differing form factor. [/QUOTE]
