Long bullets

[RockyMtnMT]

Any idea what the BC is?

I have an estimated G7-BC of .404. We should be going out to shoot it on Wed I hope. This should be a conservative estimate.

Oops. I confused my bullets. We will be shooting the new .308 227g bullet this week. We do not at this time have a fast enough barrel to run the .338 307g properly. The test on the 30 will give a better idea of the estimate on the 338. They are of very similar form.

They are $93/box of 50. We shot drops on that bullet out to 1000 and got at G7-BC of .325. That was the first Hammer Bullet in our line to kill an animal. I shot a wolf with it last fall at 265y and then Brian shot a moose with it about 20 min later at 80y. This is just a very nice easy to run bullet.

Steve,

It looks like you had 298 orders before mine. Congratulations on a good start.

I have several 1-8 6mm, .264 ,.277. I looked at your Web site, where's the 8mm love at? Can I order some 8mm special?

I forgot to ask, what is the other BC for the .264? JBM doesn't seem to use what you are using.

They may still be working on that one and don't have it up yet? Just guessing.
I'm hoping for an 8mm in the 220-230 gr range, splitting the difference between the common 200 gr and the super heavy 250+ gr.
If I find the right bullet, I'd buy the barrel with a twist to stabilize it.
Probably my next project, (another) 8mm, maybe with a faster twist rate than the usual 1:10".
[EDIT: Cutting Edge does list a 225 gr as well as a 256 gr. I'm just looking for more options ]

Ok guys I am headed out to the shot right now to cut one. We have one designed for 9" twist at sea level. I'll be right back with exact specs.

Ya, let me know. I'll order my barrel based on this bullet. I have had an 8mm wildcat on the back burner for to long. I'll even do testing if you need it done
