[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 255185, member: 11717"] Ditto, I've been spending a lot of time reading there as well and it's all very interesting. Looking at their twist charts, there seems to be a narrow window that would allow for both short and long range hunting charts. I too have thought about carrying different bullets for conventional and LR hunting, especially since many long range bullet/loads won't fit into standard mags. I ran some quick ballistics based on the velocity you gave for 150 and a 1 MOA difference in drop @ 750 yds would show a BC of about .370 as opposed to the .412 advertized, @ 3000' elevation. If the 177 gr bullet BC was actually .550 it would still be better than the E-Tip, not to mention the better velocity and other advantages. Just thinking out loud. They say they will do custom bullets too. I wonder if they could take their 197 SP and drill a cavity in it for expansion. That would be one sweet bullet. [/QUOTE]
