Thread: Matches with hunting bullets

BC 100% does matter at field matches. BC directly effects wind drift. the less drift you have the more tolerance you have in a slightly off wind call.

In saying that I shoot a lot of PRS/field matches and would very happily shoot eld x's or TGK. I believe they are just as consistent as the match lines of bullets but have a different internal make up. match bullets are cheaper because they are a little less complex or have less copper in the jacket.

If i was a primarily hunter shooting the odd match I would 100% use my hunting load. knowing your load and rifle is so bloody important for knowing your own ability and making ethical shots on game.

Just find a good consistent load and stick to it mate
