Will someone please try and tell me something I didn't know about this topic.
I understand how B.C. plugs into my ballistics. But how this came about was I am shooting two bullets that are the same weight, same shape, same size, and same type. They are the Traditions Smackdown SST & the CARNIVORE. They are both 250 gn polymer tipped bullets that are lead electroplated with copper. But the B.C. of the SST is .210, and the B.C. 9f the CARNIVORE is .262. They look identical to the eye. So after thinking awhile I thought the only way I s if the sectional density is different. Than that would allow for a higher B.C.????? But now I don't really know how or of sectional density would apply here. Hard for me to understand how twonalmost identical bullets can be sondiff in the B .C.
Thanks for your time,
T. Brady
