Anybody know the B.C. for the 300 gr. .375 AB?

The 375 cal 300 gr AB has a BC of .485 and a SD of .305.
Nosler p/n 53662. They will be available very soon. :wink:

wow I kind of thouht it would be a little better than that.

.485 BC is pretty good for a 375 cal, and being a game bullet with predictable performance, you can't beat it.

JD I agree that it is a great B.C. for a hunting bullet but I guess I was just thinking that it would of been a little higher based off of the .473 of the 260 Gr. AB. Makes sence if I think about it though, a 40 grain jump in a .308 call bullet makes a huge difference in lenght, and a 40 Gr. jump in a .375 cal and the bullet won't "grow" the same length as the .308 because of the .067" size difference. Mabey? I don't know

I understand where you are, same with the 338 cals. The 225 gr AB has a BC of .550 and the 250 gr AB will be .575 BC.
Although the BC's are slightly lower, they will be awesome long range game bullets with predictable results. The SMK folks can say what they want but those bullets are not intended to be used on game. The Nosler AB is a game bullet.

Would love to see what it would do in a 378 Bee.

But the 260 grain gain has a BC of .473????

40 more grains of bullet and only a minute increase in BC. Must be tough as heck...more jacket I guess.
