[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 553885, member: 2011"] Some have surely stated that. I fully agree. I don't feel the drop is the major problem with the lesser bc. Its retained energy a bit second but wind effect being the major consideration. I'm working on an innovation that will, when perfected, (have some out for testing.....come on guys start shootin' :)) will result in you being able to make yourself a 160 class 277 bullet that with a bc in the high 0.6xx range (???). These are based on a well accepted, proven bullets with ready availability which will hold together in about any barrel configuration you can pass it through at extreme velocities. I'd have the durn things either fully proven or have given up by now but for being away from shooting/testing for 18 months. Next spring I'll have it fully proven or will have paid one heck of a tuition.......again.:) [/QUOTE]
