Do you realize that SD and Mass are only PARTS of the formula for calculating BC? The formula also takes into consideration drag coefficient and projectile lengths, among other factors.

So, you are comparing Berger's Target Hybrid weighing 153.5 grains that has a slightly higher ballistic coefficient than the EOL hunter weighing 156 grains which has a slightly lower BC and declaring that Berger has no idea what they are talking about and missed the mark completely based on your limited understanding of BC. But try and think for a moment. Certain characteristics of a bullet can offset others such that a slightly lighter bullet CAN have a higher BC than a slightly heavier buller of the exact same diameter IF it is shaped differently to achieve a different drag coefficient and has a different length.

Just about all of Bergers Target Hybrid bullets achieve a slightly higher BC than the next slightly heavier hunting bullets of the same caliber. They do with a different shape and length which serve to offset other elements of the BC formula.

Calculating BC is not as simple as you think. You've self-aggrandized yourself into looking stupid(er).

So, to turn a phrase - bless YOUR little heart for TRYING. You CLUELESS Fhuqktard.

Fhuqking LAUGHING!
