    Funny how on the Hornady site the Amax BCs are much higher than published on that article on Shotgunnews....

    When shooting light projectiles at stupid velocities in the 22-243 imp ie 45grains at 4500+fps the only projectiles that survive are Plastic or Hollow point projectiles, the lead tips melt into a grey mist...

    My personal experience with putting plastic tips in monolithic projectiles consistently shows that plastic tips are detrimental to BC.

    I'm not entirely sure why but back to back comparisons with show it every time, accuracy is not effected, possibly enhanced even but the results speak for themselves....

    I will believe the published BCs when I see Bryan Litz tests & releases the data
