[QUOTE="Jon A, post: 65102, member: 319"] [ QUOTE ] Also, I really do not care what the B.C. for my bullet is. [/ QUOTE ] Well, the numbers you're throwing out are being compared against other bullets rated BC's at sea level. That's probably the source of much of the arguement/disbelief here. Happens all the time. Your measurements at 3000 ft are generally going to show BC's around 10% higher than the same thing done at sea level. Reducing them down to the same standard everybody else uses (or at least is supposed to) makes them much more plausible. BTW, I would like to try some of these bullets in the future, I'm not trying to badmouth them at all. Just get accurate info. I have no doubt they drop much less than similar weight/caliber SMK's...but so do the plastic tipped bullets. [/QUOTE]
