[QUOTE="Mysticplayer, post: 80829, member: 8947"] JB, ask him to shoot some 140gr SST's instead. The old 6.5 Amax was a great bullet. Not so happy with the new gen. They have made them way less aero. They need to bring back those old designs. The new SST shares the old Amax profile. Length is 1.40". Very accurate too. Mikecr, reread my past posts. All the data you need is right in there from scope to conditions to computer assumptions. I am only a few thousand feet above sea level so ambient conditions will not change your results worth a spit. Factory Savage rifle with good old weaver bases and Burris Sig Zee rings w/inserts (high height). Elite 4200 6X24 scope. Nothing fancy here and pretty standard set up. Fiddle with all that data. Change assumptions, whatever. It will not agree with G1 profile. Believe me, I have spent the time on the computer. The G7 profile matches the field data to a T. Have fun... Jerry [/QUOTE]
