    Berger 130gr VLD, anyone checked the G7 BC ?

    I was wondering if anyone else had gone to the trouble of verifying the G7 ballistic coefficient for the 6.5mm 130gr VLD bullet (P/N 26503) in their rifle/s ? The published figure is 0.288. My drop data typically indicates a figure of 0.296 which is curious as the drops for the 140gr VLD (P/N 26504) from the same rifle are a match for the published G7BC figure of 0.307 for that bullet, and I'm running both within 100 ft/sec of each other.
