[QUOTE="Wolf76, post: 1598834, member: 75779"] This is my last post. I called barnes and discussed this bullet(200gr xpb) with the technician. Minimum speed for any expansion is 1700 fps as referenced in my previous post. So at 300 yards you are 200 fps(probably more)below the minimum. Not what I'd call ethical, but as my friend says "play stupid games... win stupid prizes". And the BC absolutely matters in this case because its the reason the bullet starts at 2900 fps and is below 1500 [USER=23446]@300[/USER]. 2-3 hundred fps is normal velocity loss per 100 yards with many rifles. With a 100 yard zero, there is 14" of drop between 2/3 hundred. Really at a loss for words. You either don't understand physics or are willfully ignoring the facts. [/QUOTE]
