[QUOTE="Varminator 911, post: 1533533, member: 9705"] The drilled base fits in with my vision for the future of mono metal bullets. Maximize the form factor and hold down the weight to allow higher velocity. Do this in the larger calibers because that's where there's room to further increase twist rates. A 7 twist 338-375 maybe even 416 would allow a very long sleek bullet. A G7 of 0.4+ should be possible at 3500+ fps. Those large caliper bullets are killers. Instead of shooting a 300 grain 338 shoot a 240-300 gn 375-416 at 500 fps higher velocity. [/QUOTE]
