[QUOTE="Buffalobob, post: 713301, member: 8"] Not my experience with them nor is it the experience of long range hunters who have killed several small eastern whitetails at extreme ranges. The Nosler BC is in the realm of magic pixie dust. I shoot the old 7mm Wildcat 200 grains bullets that were once claimed to have a G1 above 0.9. I have tried Bryan Litz published BC for the Wildcats bullets at ranges beyond 1000 yards and find them to be very close, in fact close enough to result in one shot kills. I have little doubt that the BC is going to be a lot lower than Nosler is saying if normal twists at normal velocities will stabilize them. The thing I find intriguing about the new bullets is that the Nosler Jackets will withstand the firecracking that develops in the super magnums such as the 7mm Allen Magnum. So when my barrel finally begins to eat bullets I can switch to the 175 Accubond with its thicker jacket. [/QUOTE]
