[QUOTE="Michael Eichele, post: 965973, member: 1007"] Phorwath, I have seen the same thing with other bullets. SMKs ring a bell but can't remember. I've always been told that this was a 'pressure ring'. Not sure exactly now what to think but I've never had any bullets that had this feature shoot bad. E101, Now you're getting why guys like me are excited about them! By saying guys like me, I mean 308 fans or fans of other sub magnum cartridges. I'm getting 2601'sec with the 210 ABLRs in my 308 win. I've verified their BC to be .62 at the 2650-2700'sec range. At 5000' elevation in 59 degree air they'll deliver 1135'# energy with over 1500'sec impact. With a lower velocity threshold for expansion and higher BCs (higher than the average hunting bullet anyways) they have moved the 308 into legitimate 1000+ yard hunting territory. Previously never thought to be possible. At least for deer and sheep size game. Maybe at reduced velocity and the high SD and mass of the 210s, they would do good on elk at shorter ranges.?
