Right on Joe. I have a whole bunch of those and am definately going to give 'em a whirl, along w/ the SST in the same weight.

I just wondered if the extra BC advantage in the VLDs might really be significant as far out as I'm likely to shoot.

I'm not sure what the twist on my is Coyo, but that is a good point. I'll have to check that out. The gent I've purchased it from didn't know if it was an aftermarket customization job or just a nice turn-down from the step-tapered original. Now that you bring this to my attention I see just what a significant difference this could make in my bullet choice.
