[QUOTE="the444shooter, post: 880921, member: 46"] I believe the b-tip adds consistency to the shape (and therefore BC) of the bullet. My question would be "how does a SP 'grip' the barrel better?" I call BS on that, especially since the jacket is often times made of the same material, and the bearing surface is very similar, if not the same. I believe it's worth the time to test different bullets (higher BCs, bonded & non-bonded, monometal, etc...) and see what your gun likes best. Might make the world of difference on a windy day. Hope this helps somewhat. [/QUOTE]
