[QUOTE="sniperjwt, post: 357341, member: 22262"] well after running the numbers im on my way to buy all these bullets i can find. :D Ok not really but barnes list a BC of.397 for these bullets and from what i come up with a .900 BC is what you would need and it still would not match up perfectly. It would be 2.2 inches high at 100 1.1 inches high at 300 and 4.5 inches low at 400. Now i know the BC can be off a little bit but i think it is usually higher than the actual BC not way lower. I also could not tell you of the choices you provided which one is the most correct. Now if the guy cant read a tape measure or a pair of calipers then it might be pretty close with a bc of .400 2.6 high at 100 will give you 1.3 high at 300 and 5.6 low at 400 which this may be more the case because he may have just been guessing and not actually taking a measurement.
