[QUOTE="VLD Pilot, post: 1955142, member: 103947"] It's where the BC comes in. Slipperier defying wind and gravity a bit better. Matching the 145 to the 143 with higher velocities of the .270, it's about equal in both wind and drop data. Now if you compared the same two bullets with equal cartridge case capacity such as the 6.5/06, the 6.5 is much better beyond 500 yards. The difference becomes more noticable every 100 yards down range. The equal velocity at the muzzle gives the 6.5s higher BC a clear advantage. Windrift me be an inch or two different but the 270 still outperforms the 6.5 CM in velocity and energy at 800. Again the higher BC 6.5 bullet makes that windage difference. [/QUOTE]
