[QUOTE="Ian M, post: 76620, member: 25"] [b]Re: Wilcat Bullets...Why haven\'t BC\'s been posted?[/b] Guys, This thread has run its course - let's shut 'er down and get on to other things. I hate to see guys like Kirby expending energy on a keyboard when he could be setting up a lathe. I believe that this was pretty much a waste of time because eventually Richard will get BC's, but when you have a small bullet manufacturers' equipment moved from South Dakota to your farm in Alberta, and only have a couple of days instruction on how things are done, then have to get those machines operating and turning out high-quality bullets - plus run a farm, cows, crops, drought, hail, floods - plus get some shooting and hunting in - I am amazed that he is where he is at with his boolits. The BC's will come, but let's let the guy walk before he has to run - he ain't Hornady or Sierra at this point in time. As of this moment, this thread is over - or I will invoke my nuking powers and that could put this entire site down or worse. On the other hand: I spent yesterday afternoon shooting dry and wet-soaked telephone books with a significant variety of factory ammo - for what it's worth most of the bullets stopped in the Chinese Restaurant section of the yellow pages in the fourth phone book, wet or soaked. Not sure if BC has anything to do with that. Now someone might want to argue that there were too many pages in the Chinese Food section, that the paper was different in the Chinese Food section, that the water never got to the Chinese Food pages, or that I was wasting my time shooting expensive factory ammo into phone books. I don't really give a rat's butt, this was interesting, my buddy did some fine shooting as I called shot placement and it got us off the streets for a few hours. I did get some very neat info regarding bullet performance by a variety of bullets ranging from the most $ to the cheapos on Regina phone books. Next we will shoot the books at 100 yards...
