[QUOTE="BryanLitz, post: 533273, member: 7848"] Shawn, I'm curious, what altitude above sea level are you shooting these tests? I've observed the bullets to be transonic stable out to 2400 in Wyoming last year, but that was at 6500 feet ASL. I've been wondering how low altitude they would survive. Denser air at low altitude is much harder on transonic stability than less dense air found higher up. Last week we shot these bullets to a mile, but they were only slowed to ~1200 fps in our conditions. Not too much transonic action there.
