[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 1369844, member: 87243"] I should explain better where I came up with my data on the 285 ELD-M vs. the Berger 300 grain. While Hornady advertises a G1 bc of .829 and G7 of .417, the Applied Ballistics (bryan litz) G1 bc is .775 and G7 bc is .397 so makes it fall significantly short of the G1 of .837 and G7 of .429 from the 300 Berger. I will also say that I have exactly zero hands on experience with either of these bullets as this will be my first 338 I have toyed with, but the 300 Berger is pretty well established. Also, I do plan on testing the 285 ELD-M's in the 338 Norma. [/QUOTE]
