[QUOTE="Starbuck, post: 2982355, member: 120719"] So, if I'm following your argument correctly, you believe that the widespread trend towards longer, higher BC bullets in about every diameter has a negative correlation to killing efficacy? IME, long, heavy for caliber bullets are very effective killers both near and far. And while there's myriad variables that go into bullet upset, tissue disruption, etc, in an effort to not get too far in the weeds on more difficult to qualify attributes, I'll keep my response constrained to facts that are easily searched and verified: Long, heavy for caliber, higher BC bullets are less adversely affected by both atmospheric and wind conditions, enabling bullets to land closer to POA in a wider range of conditions. Bullets landing where they're supposed to has a very positive correlation to killing efficacy. [/QUOTE]
