[QUOTE="wildcat westerner, post: 343639, member: 21361"] Am I reading this correctly? a 168 grain ULD RBBT in a 6.5 diameter bullet? What would the B.C. be for a bullet this heavy and long? Would the ULD be ultra low drag? The RBBT a rebated boattail? Since this bullet is nearly 30% heavier than the heavy 6.5's that work so well at long distance you would need a really large case to push it fast enough to display its advantages at long range. What kind of velocities can be gained from such a heavy bullet in this large case? I would think windage deflection might be less than any other bullet I've heard of in this caliber. Gene So [/QUOTE]
