[QUOTE="Clem Bronkoski, post: 1690778, member: 110518"] Getting back to the original posts your bullet selection should not be limited to and you should not get hung up on BC. The first thing to consider is your rifle's rate of twist. Normally the faster your twist rate the heavier (hence longer) bullet you can use. I had a Rem 700 in .270 Win that just loved 130 gr bullets. But trying to feed it 150 grainers was an effort in futility. It would not shoot them well no matter what I tried. [/QUOTE]
