[QUOTE="flashhole, post: 862173, member: 21375"] Please explain this comment. The BC is the figure of performance that bucks wind resistance and keeps the bullet going faster, longer, thus providing better trajectory. The bearing surface of the bullet is what influences stability related to barrel twist. Long bullets in slow twist barrels don't obtain adequate rotational velocity to stabilize. A pointy bullet will have the same stability as a stubby bullet for the same twist barrel but the BC will define down range performance. [/QUOTE]
