Its G1 ballistic coefficient of 0.35 drives velocity retention and wind drift downrange — higher values mean a flatter trajectory at distance. A twist rate of 1:8.5 is recommended for stable flight; slower twists can under-stabilise this bullet. We currently list 383 load recipes across 33 calibers for this bullet.
