   Warthog liked post by -BW- On thread : Boat tails v.s. flat base projectiles

   The theory is that a boat tail in certain bores may allow propellent gases to flow past the base, decreasing obturation of the projectile in the bore, and potentially allowing these gases to exit...

   They fly shit shorter....can fill a worn bore better,the moon was in correct alignment when made. Just go with it. Boattails are easier to load as sit nicely in case to start seating but other than...
