[QUOTE="bamban, post: 2406050, member: 17722"] My opinion, BC is overrated at the ranges I read most people shoot deer. We are not talking about staying in the X ring of a F Class target. I suppose I am just a service rifle shooter who is used to cranking for the wind. There is no magic BC to keep you in the X ring. I do understand the retained energy relationship with the BC, but in the distances for killing deer that I read here, max BC for the bullet weight is not an absolute requirement. Know you bullet characteristics in the wind, when the opportunity arises, read the wind, crank or hold and break a good shot ---- dead deer. [/QUOTE]
