I remembered you were interested in if i had figured anything out on the BC of the 125gr ULD's. I shot this last sunday with BJ Bailey and another buddy of ours at his personnal range. He has gongs at 500--650--760 yds. BJ was shooting his 300 RUM with the 240gr SMK at 2850fps, when he shot the gong at 500yds we were all amazed at the massive WHACK it delivered. After Bj was done I stepped up with my little savage 25-06 with the 125gr loaded somewhere between 3100 and 3200fps.
When I connected with the gong on my second shot our buddy, who couldnt see who was shooting, asked BJ why his 300RUM got so much quiter. THe whack my little 125gr bullet delivered was nearly equal in sound to the one heard from the RUM and the massive 240gr brick!!!
On closer inspection on the gong the splashes from the 300 and the 25-06 were nearly identical, the little sucker has a lot of thump for no more powder than is in it.
AS for the BC I could only shoot it out to 760yds but it took 15.75 MOA to score hits and at nearly 3200fps this would put the bc around .550 to pushing .600
**** nice little bullet
take it easy
