RE: Ballistic Coefficient vs. Accuracy?
I have enough moulds that I could weld together and make a good boat anchor to hold a 50' houseboat in a 60 mph wind. I shot the money bullets in the .44's and .45's and they have never performed as well as my blunter nosed.
At the Mt. 1000 I started with a money bullet because I only had 23 left of the PJ .45's left and when the match started the first three 1000 yard targets I hit 5 rounds out of 10 plus a sighter shot 11 rounds. I told Carolyn to get the box PJ with 82 gr of 2F OE when she came back she said you only have 23 left I said I only need 11.
On the last 1000 yard target the sighter hit plus the 10 for record.
When Dan T started to come around with his long nosed MB it wasn't long that the ROT increased from 1/18 to 1/16 for the .45's and I also have the 1/16 and 1/17 ROT .45-90's and I hold the powder loads at 82 gr like some use for the .45-70 and the blind PJ bullet makes a round hole through the paper at 1000.
Going through some old score cards shot at Lodi by average I tend to get a higher score on the 1000 then I do on the 8 or 900.
I sooner put an extra spin on the elevation knob with the blunt bullet and hit what I aim at.
