[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 1307083, member: 7999"] For me I am more concerned with terminal performance and most of my testing is for that. BC runs a long ways back in the list of qualities of a hunting bullet. I digress to Litz on the stability vs bc. My ability to test bc is not nearly as good as his. When it comes to terminal performance there is no doubt that the higher stability bullet will perform much better. Marginally stable bullets have a much higher chance of complete failure and when they preform correctly they don't do as well as when they have a higher stability factor. This I have proven over and over. The more I learn about stability and terminal performance the more I will personally error toward higher stability in my own hunting bullets. I think many of the stories that you hear about bullets failing to perform on animals is due to the stability not the design of the bullet. Few manufactures talk about this. I think that is because there are a lot of bullets marketed for hunting that are marginal for stability. The push for heavier higher bc bullets means they must get longer to gain the weight, making them harder to stabilize. I have no doubt that your results are solid. So don't take me wrong. I was never questioning your data. Steve [/QUOTE]
