    Numbers look good if accurate, tho they do look like the would be single feed in most if not all rifles just due to bending the tip with recoil.
    I wonder if the would be tricky to get shooting well?

    In the website blurb it says it promotes less muzzle gas interference upon muzzle exit.

    They look a bit like the original Hornady amax with the aluminium tip. The BC for the 162 .284 was just over .7 G1

    The rebated boattail is easier to make in the Corbin dies which is what the manufacturer probably used.

    why someone would list G1 BC for a VLD does not make ANY sense to me...

    some interesting high BC projectiles coming out of Aus as well - B&T energetics ELRMT
