[QUOTE="Dread264, post: 1228388, member: 97658"] Who are "you guys"? As an accomplished of a shooter as Bryan is, it's not really relevant to how good of a ballistician he is. Not to slight him in that department either as he's well accomplished there as well. Of course so is Dave Emary Hornady's chief ballistician. I doubt either one of them will claim to be better then the other, and i doubt you have their resumes to determine that yourself. Doc, would I be correct to assume that the CD/M developed for the prototype .375 berger pill was developed with the use of the rifles that were used at the KO2M and the same lot of bullets? If that's the case then it's not surprising no truing was needed, for the rest of us with different barrels, and lots of bullets it's probably going to need trueing. Since the drag curves will change with lot variations and variations in barrels. And really in this case it doesn't matter if x manufacturers bullet lots are more consistent then Y manufacturers because AB (and Hornady if they are to be believed) will have multiple manufacturers drag profiles. Got busy halfway through this so if someone has responded already I'll address it soon. [/QUOTE]
