The same observation about Ballistic Tips in 25 Caliber was made by John Barsness and confirmed by Bob Oehler. Steve Tims told me by that he had experienced the same thing.

I think if I were going to build a 257 WSM,I would get a fast twist barrel as others have suggested,it would allow the use of some of the new heavy vld bullets and would not hurt the performance of traditional 25 caliber bullets.




NO bullet shoots "flatter" or drifts wind "better" than it's actual BC and Nuzzler has looonnngggggggggg "enjoyed" inflated BC values,to start with. Which is of course why the corrected(Litz) BC of the .257" 115 BT,is softer than advertised. HINT. Congratulations?!?

Never been difficult to cypher,who shoots and who don't.

Hint...............


It’s actually a G7 bc vs g1 and the difference between testing at a 100 yards or over the flight to say 1000.
POOR sugar tits let’s talk external ballistics. Then go home to our wives and enjoy a nice home cooked dinner. 😂😂😂🤣😂
