[QUOTE="Canadian Bushman, post: 1097773, member: 41122"] Some bullets do really well through the transsonic region some not so much. Its very hard to predict and the easiest way to find out is to shoot and see. Ive always been under the impression that shooting at targets where the bullet is transitioning is the most unpredictable. Shooting before or after that range yeilds more consistent results. Ive only ever tried shooting at a target in the transitioning phase a handfull of times and found it difficult but wouldnt assume all bullets behave that way. The times i tried was with a berger 185 vld from a 1:12 twist with mv of 2570 @ +61ft sea level. Bigngreen Ive run the 215 to 1810yds from a 10.5 twist at sea level and they were still making round holes. Im suprised for such a long bullet but it seemed stable. The wind completely took me to school so i cant attest to any sort of accuracy claims but the few i got on target made round holes. [/QUOTE]
