[QUOTE="benchracer, post: 489494, member: 22069"] From what I can tell, the Barnes Triple Shock X bullets are the best of the bunch in terms of G1 BC's for .375 bullets that will stabilize in a factory twist barrel. The 300 gr. SGK is notably inferior to the 270gr Barnes TSX in the BC department and even more so to the 300gr TSX. The 260 gr Nosler Accubond has about the same BC as the SGK and could be launched quite a bit faster. It would still be inferior to either of the Barnes TSX's. Unless you intend to re-barrel to a custom twist, your best bet would be to go with the highest BC you can find in a bullet in the 270 gr weight class and push it as fast as you can. IMO, that spells Barnes TSX or Nosler Accubond. Depending on what kind of velocity you are able to achieve, the 235 gr TSX may also be worth a look. It has a .400 G1 BC. If it has enough of a velocity advantage vs a 270 gr bullet, it might be worthwhile. Running the numbers through a ballistic program would likely tell the tale. [/QUOTE]
