[QUOTE="MuleHunter, post: 664935, member: 14190"] In truth i was a little dissapointed in the BC of the Matrix, however it is the most accurate bullet i have yet to test. I think the accuracy and consistency are worth giving up a few BC points. They are the most consistent bearing surface i have seen with an extreme variance of only .003". Most are within .001". I think that part of the BC loss if from the large Meplat diameter. I plan to try tipping them to .033" and retesting. As of right now the 7 WSM with a 180gr Hybrid beats the 270 WSM Matrix combo ballistically. My initial goals were to beat the 7. Now if i can tip the bullet and match the 7 ballistically but beat it accuracy wise i will be happy. So far a G1 of .674 at 2,950fps is the number to beat to make the 270 WSM worth the loss of barrel life over the 7. [/QUOTE]
