[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 2405392, member: 7999"] We purchased the new Oehler bc calculation system last summer. It got so busy we didn't have time to get it up and running. We will be working with it this year since we have doubled our production capability. It will be more accurate than we can be by shooting drops, but it won't change the fact that bc varies from rifle to rifle. That is the very reason that Oehler developed the system. We have messed with tips and so far everything that we have tried has made low velocity impacts worse for terminal performance. We will not chase price or bc at the detriment of terminal performance. Nor will we market a bullet that works most of the time. I wouldn't shoot it myself so why would I be willing to sell it? If we can come up with a tip design that doesn't inhibit low velocity performance we will be all over it. I will have to eat some crow but I would eat that crow willingly. [/QUOTE]
