The G1 BC drag models are historically really more appropriate for a flat-based bullet. The G7 drag model is for a boat-tailed bullet, so for longer ranges, you're better off leaning on the G7 drag model for the bullet you're using.
Brian Litz's work on this is a great reference, which is why I really like the Berger Ballistics program if using drag models. Other than that, Lapua's Quick Target Unlimited is the one to beat in conjunction with their Scenars, because they have shot them on a doppler radar track, so you will have predictive, exact Point Of Impact data once you know your velocity and conditions.
Hey, I just got mt 100gr nosler ballistic tip bullets in from shooters pro shop and I noticed its listed as a varmint bullet here although the box says is a hunting bullet for deer and antelope.
do you want a 110 grn gs custom bullet? i know for a fact that they work great in my grendel when i line up 3 little piggies and get em all with one shot!
I tried to pm lrrpf52 and his mailbox is full. send me an address and i'll get the bullets mailed. thanks

I don't see the Hornady 140gr SST.
Ballistic Coefficient (G1) 0.520
Sectional Density 0.287
I recently picked up a box by mistake (in the pile of 129 SST boxes) so will give them a try one of these days.
Edit: never mind. Found them in the Dropbox link....
I check this thread every time it is updated hoping to see the ABLR on here. I leave disappointed every time.
When I was talking with another customer at Sportsman's, he said that they put out some of the other caliber of Nosler ABLR, and he snagged them. Don't recall if it was .277" or 7mm, but he said the ogives are way long on them, which is what gives it a lot of BC.
Midway has some 150gr 7mm ABLR in stock right now.

Has anyone ordered any of the new Cutting Edge bullets? They look like an awesome bullet to load and they state they have them in every caliber now. Their videos are great. I do not reload but would like to know if someone does with these just to know. BANG BANG!!

BC for the Barnes TAC-TX is listed as 0.359 per

this also happens to be the same as the Barnes TTSX which leads me to believe they are the same bullet but labeled differently....

A bloke here in AUS (Taipan Bullets) makes a 76grn 6.5 bullet. I'v used them in the 260 and reckon they'd be the ducks guts in a Grendel. Don't know how they'd go in a 8-9 twist though?

These are little monsters when they hit a wallaby. Next to a 120 grn SMK for comparison.
The bloke is Malcom Bone and this is the link to his bullet list

I really enjoyed the handbooks and one for bolt guns would be interesting. We can't have any semi auto centerfires in AUS so a bolt is our best option.

Here's one from Aussie Custom Projectiles
http://www.auscp.net.au/www.auscp.net.au...120gr.html I think Adam has asked them to make a 100grn version.
