[QUOTE="BallisticsGuy, post: 1550786, member: 96226"] I routinely run Sg's down to the low 1.3's. Sg increases as the bullet loses velocity down range. Velocity decays a TON faster that gyroscopic spin. The forces trying to flip the bullet over at mach 3 are a lot higher than at mach 1.5 after all. You will quite probably lose a little BC, something like 3-5% probably. Under 600yrds it simply won't matter enough to say grace over. [/QUOTE]
