[QUOTE="Kiwi Greg, post: 2881380, member: 13456"] I started tipping .375 425gr Cutting Edge projectiles well before they released their Lazer line to help with terminal performance I made the MTH HP deeper by 2+ times & enlarged the diameter to accept the early Hornady V-Max "melty" tips This was done a wee bit agriculturally in a lathe which resulted in a few blemish's, off set/bent/loose tips, too big a flat causing a step under the tip etc These projectiles still shot just as accurately as the "perfect" ones I made or the untouched ones at 2K yards What I noticed was the tipped ones were constantly 2 moa lower impact at distance even though they were slightly lighter & faster with the same zero My conclusion was I had reduced the BC by tipping them [/QUOTE]
