Interesting concept But If you take a 300 win mag, load up a 125gr ballistic tip to 3500fps. You get the same results. Where is the better mouse trap part of the story?



The higher BC bullets of the 26 Nosler will have a huge amount of less wind drift at long range and maintain velocity better than would a BC challenged 30 caliber 125 grain bullet
