ball. coef. different between ballistic tip and accubond

[warden]

i'm loading the 140gr. AB in my .270, which shoots great i might add. i noticed that the 140gr. ballistic tip b.c. is .456 while the 140gr. AccuBond is .496. is this a misprint? i ask, because i've noticed that nosler lists the same b.c. for .7mm and .30cal. bullets of the same weight in both bullet styles.

We are glad they shoot great for you,..... we can't hear that enough. The answer to your question is it's not a misprint. The AccuBonds are a longer bullet that the Ballistic Tips so they generally have a higher B.C. I hope that helps.
