[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 605884, member: 5219"] I admit I am obsessed with high BC. I am always crunching numbers to see what the wind drift will be with a particular bullet. A 490 yd shot at an elk in a 20 mph crosswind using the low BC TSX still haunts me. I have never liked holding many feet OFF an animal compensating for crosswinds to make the shot. My guess put the bullet through both shoulders and I got the animal. Right after that I began to use the higher BC 200 gr accubond in my 300 RUM. So my quest will continue trying to get the very best I can from my hunting rigs using the highest BCs available. I agree with Grayfox that most hunters don't know anything about the BC of their chosen bullets. I am talking it up to all sorts of shooters at the range and they don't even know what BC means. The few that are using VLDs know this information. If they visit here they will learn these things quickly or leave puzzled. [/QUOTE]
