Seems like I’ve seen it before but I could be hallucinating.

I did some searching and didn’t find any info or data on that load but...
3000+ FPS is haul’n the mail!

Did you get any accuracy with that? Also what drop, were you able to figure a BC for that bullet? Their website just says “0”.

@makerbullets page says “Tipped” also, but the pic looks like his STD expanding type.

Here’s the thread.
viewtopic.php?f=141&t=96500&hilit=Extre ... t&start=40

I took it out to 200 yards and the drop matched closely to the predicted BC from speeds taken from the Lab Radar. Roughly a G-1 of 180 at 3000 fps. That will go up a velocity goes down.

Thanks for the link.

Were you able to zero in on that BC?

BC is like the wind, it’s never the same, but yes. That G-1 of 180 will be a good number for me at 3500ft and 60-80 degrees. The conditions tested.

If you have your conditions spot on, then you will want to check your drops and adjust the BC accordingly for your velocity and conditions.

If you play with a calculator, a BC window of say 160-190 probably won’t make as much difference as 1500 ft of altitude or 25 degrees of weather out to 300 yards.

Those in the know truth realize dellet drank about 3 latte's and thought he jogged past the lab radar while it was on. Lay of the juice budro.
