[QUOTE="4ked Horn, post: 65130, member: 11"] Thanks for the input guys. This is the bullet Richard and I have come up with so far. 175 gr RBBT ULD ogive Unbonded core .030" jacket Slightly open meplat. To refresh memories It will be a 100 to 700 yard deer bullet first and chucks and rocks and steel as far as I can go (1200 yds approx). 175 grain, RBBT, ULD are all about that famous BC and velocity ballance. The unbonded core and .030" jacket cut cost and give favorable expansions on deer at .308 velocities out to 700. The meplat left a little open aids in terminal effect on the chucks. Sort of a "gift" if you will. I'm fairly set on this except for the ogive. Let me ask this. Do I [i]need[/i] a ULD shape for a factory .308 at the ranges mentioned? Tell me what you think. I can almost feel the money leaving my wallet as we sit here. [/QUOTE]
