[QUOTE="martinakl, post: 1379195, member: 74115"] Tagging in. I'm going to try the 180 ELD-M's. Hornady does the bracketed BC on these bullets. The BC on the box is the Mach 2.5 BC, 1:7.75 Twist BC. Hornady lists different BC's for different twist rates. What I've been reading if you use the average BC for the Hornady ELD, you'll be really close. [ATTACH=full]86722[/ATTACH] In a factory, 1:9 twist, 180 Hornady vs 180 Berger, the Hornady looks pretty sweet. 195 appears to work if you have enough speed and altitude in a 1:9 twist. In a custom, 1:8 twist, the ELD-M does appear to have a better BC than the 195. If it shoots a little faster and has a better BC, the 180 could be an attractive option for many (Factory or custom). The Hornady bullets are a little cheaper. I got mine on sale for $28/box at Cabelas. Source: [URL]https://www.hornady.com/support/ballistic-coefficient[/URL] [/QUOTE]
