Ballistic tips are good bullets, but they're not boattails so their BCs aren't up there with the A-max or Berger vlds.

It's all about the wind when you get out there, and BC affects the amount of drift.

Get a ballistics program or go on Berger's website and use their ballistics calculator to enter in different BCs and see how wind drift is affected at long range, that will give you a good idea of why bullet selection is important.


Excuse me, but Nosler Ballistic Tips are indeed "boatail" bullets anyone can see that.



You'll have to excuse smoke. He thinks boat tails have a propeller.
