[QUOTE="liltank, post: 378427, member: 13275"] Factory lists the velocity at 2820. Not sure of the test rifle, so this will very with each rifle. It states a premium bullet. Not knowing if it is a boat tail I went with a flat base bullet which is more than likely correct. With this information your BC should be somewhere between .330 to .350 (Hornady[most likely] and Sierra which they promote on one of their ammo lines). With these numbers you might be able to get close enough to start tracking your clicks and develop a drop chart. The other option is to contact federal via internet or phone and talk to the tech center and see what info they can share with you. Tank [/QUOTE]
