[QUOTE="scpaul, post: 2829370, member: 76393"] [B]when I suggested "tear dropping the rear" I was thinking of reducing the turbulence that develops at the base of a bullet no matter how small the rear flat area is. Please understand that I'm just carrying out pre-stated info and taking to the extreme. It does seem to me that the longer tail would help stabilize it going through the trans-sonic zone and help keep it more stable when it's sub-sonic although it would probably make it more susceptible to steering from cross winds. Again guessing.[/B] [/QUOTE]
