I went to the range yesterday to really start testing the 200grn Lehighs with Polymer tips on them. Right away i realized the bullet was to long to stabilize in a 1/30 twist barrel. I was shooting my 45caliber Disc Elite. The accuracy was horrible. After talking with Dave we will need to shorten the bullet for the guy's that want the extra BC. That will probably mean lighter as well.
So when all failed i decided to run some BC'S for the T/C Shockwave and the 200grn Lehigh Hollow point. Here are the numbers i got.
Lehigh 200grn
Actual BC 0.157 (The website lists it at 0.158 so your actuals validate this)
Drop - 0"(100yd), -8.7"(200), -34.3"(300)
T/C ShockWave 200grn
Actual BC 0.195
Drop - 0"(100), -7.7"(200), -29.2"(300)
The more i look at this, the bullets are with in 1" at 200yds. Wow, i wont be needing a tip that's for sure. But those that need them, we will be working on them very soon.
All shots were with 130grns of BH209 and Federal 209A Primers. Avg MV was 2350
