Is that a design issue, or is it due to them going subsonic? Don't most bullets lose stability when they pass through the transonic barrier???
Design issue. The Sierra 168 SMKs were made for 300 meter matches and have a very short bearing surface. Other 165-168 bullets do not have that issue.
So I'm new to the "long range" 308win world. Is there some 165-168 bullets that hits the 1000 yard line without issue like the SMK? I got some 175SMK to avoid the issues, but I'm also shooting a 10LE (heavy barrel 20", 1-10 twist) so I know I may have a bit more of a challenge getting the velocity.
