[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 1336176, member: 7999"] Yes that is what we use to design our bullets. Which explains my ignorance of what is going on after the bullet leaves the rifle. Bullet stability increasing as the down range vel decreases was never in my mind. It just goes against 'my' conventional thinking. Most bullets show a decrease in bc with lower vel. So as they travel from beginning to end the bc will tend to fall off down range as the vel decreases. Some designs show increases as they slow down but not most. So generally a faster launch will result in an over all higher bc. For now we will stick with what works very well. Our design that is super accurate and sg's that are at 1.5 or higher. Sometimes it is better to be lucky than good. Steve [/QUOTE]
