[QUOTE="Brent, post: 28307, member: 99"] Jerry, You've been misled I'm afraid. Form and mass are key. A thinner jacketed lead core bullet with the same outside form, thus dims will always have a lower BC because it's weight is less, so is it fact that a higher density core material than lead in the same form and dims will up the BC too. Jumping from lead to Tungsten for instance would be a huge jump too. There's a really good article on Corbin's website you'd like, actually quite a few of them there that are quite enlightening. Liked the ones on rebated boattails too. Oh ya, melt down the mercury they put in all our teeth, tell the bunny huggers that's where you got the stuff if they ask! That stuff is one, if not the most toxic stuff on earth I'm told. Wait, I think that was flouride! You know, the other toxic waste they feed us that they have to get rid of somewhere, under the guise its good for your teeth! Glad I don't have city water...
