[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 1371339, member: 7999"] You also have to take into consideration that larger bore dia needs less pressure to create the same vel of a smaller bore with the same weight bullet. Larger dia bullets of same weight and length need less twist to stabilize. Or said another way. Long heavy for caliber bullets are easier to stabilize in larger bore dia. The bullet examples that you gave are all very close to each other for bc. Using the same form factor or bullet design. Your bigger bore bullets would have a little advantage in bc. More likely would come down to the ability of the respective cartridge to creat vel. Pretty hair splitting stuff. Steve [/QUOTE]
