The 308 168g A-Max has a BC 475 & SD of 253.

Now I know the 30cal creates a bigger wound channel bot it just doesn't seem enough to make it a better killer.Am I wrong??

The 284 in 162 A-Max seems to be head & tail better than both with a BC 625 & SD 287. So is the 7MM the best of the lot?

I'm ONLY talking about "A-Max" Bullets!!!!!




It's always ALL about bullets. Hint.

SD is a moot designator,denoting nothing that bears fruit. Hint.

A Vanilla 243 will scoot the 105 at 3000fps. You gotta add much more case capacity,to squirt the 168'Max at that speed and even once you do,it drops,drifts and slows faster. Hint.

The 162 is a phenom and I hear good things...................(grin)
