[QUOTE="BryanLitz, post: 345755, member: 7848"] Romeyo, See: [URL='http://www.amazon.com/dp/0764307207/?tag=lrhmag19-20']Amazon.com: Modern Exterior Ballistics: The Launch and Flight Dynamics of Symmetric Projectiles (9780764307201): Robert L.

If you have a lathe to turn your own solids, then you have the flexibility to try many variations. Squeezing the jello, converging and optimizing on a shape is much easier with lathe turned shapes than with swaged bullets because of the expense of creating new dies. I hope you make some 'hyper low drag' bullets and share your results! Good luck! -Bryan [/QUOTE]
