[QUOTE="Jeff In TX, post: 32230, member: 1522"] Bald Eagle, VLD bullets use a G7 drag model Flat Base Spire Points use a G6 drag model Boat tail bullets use a G5 drag model SMK? I'm guessing is a Sierra Match King, which is a boat tail bullets One thing to remember is a lot of these bullets straddle the fence as to what they really are (A VLD or BT) and which drag model will work the best. VMAX is one of those bullets that I've found that straddles the fence between boat tail and/or VLD. If you know your actual external ballistics, then you can try both to see which one matches your actual data. Hope it helps [/QUOTE]
