    If would appear Mr Hornady use Doppler Radar to do their calculations and if it was used correctly then their BCs may well be close or not (depending on how much "bullshit factor" was applied by marketing dept)

    Workplace has them in 30 cal and 6.5 ,tried the 200gn 30cal and they group really well . They seem to be running out as my local sport shop says they are out of stock from the supplyer so might have to wait for the next shipment . Want to try the 220gns next time as none seem to have come in on the first shipment as for 7 mm I have not seen any for sale and workplace doesn't have them on there list so suspect none came in ,may be wrong though.

    The .338 285gr shoot very similar to the the Berger 300 EH in terms of balistics. Same charge same speed very close drops to 800 ish yds . They are a little longer in bearing surface but a couple of points of a thou narrower. The 175gr 7mm are .025 longer than a 180gr berger hybrid. I havnt got a barrel fast enough to swing them so no info there.
