[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 291345, member: 11717"] Hey Ro, We dont mean to confuse you. I'll try to explain. BC = Ballistic Coefficient. Ballistic Coefficient is how well a bullet travels through the air. A bullet with a pointy nose goes better and faster through the air than a bullet with a round or flat nose. Heavier bullets have better BC's than lighter bullets of the same shape. For shooting out to 600 yds it doesnt really doesnt matter which bullet you pick from the ones that have been suggested. My order of prefference would be... 140 Nosler AB 139 Hornady Interbond 140 Barnes TTSX 150 Nosler E-Tip 154 Hornady Interbond 150 Barnes TTSX 160 Nosler AB 140 Nosler BT 160 Nosler BT 162 Hornady Amax Any of these bullets will do well out to 600 yds if they shoot accurately in your rifle. That's a lot to pick from, so the best thing to do is start with one bullet form the list and try it. If it shoots small groups, it's good to go. :) [/QUOTE]
