53gr V-Max

They aren't listed in Litz's book, so you'll have to take Swampy's word for it.

Do you know of any independent sources who've dopplered the 53gr Vmax? I don't see much in the way of testing/ proving b.c.s of small caliber, non-VLD bullets...

I know Swampy's 6.5mm 140 JLKs are pretty much spot on for listed b.c., but his 180 #s appear to be overstated, per Litz doppler data?

Anyhoo, have a batch of 60 LDs to try in a new hotrod 1:12. Will confirm MV via Magnetospeed V3, so should be able to extrapolate a b.c. with respect to observed drops at distance...
 
Josh, I agree with Otter. Your expectation of a consistent .125" group with factory gun and load components is unrealistic. Small groups - sure. Consistent 1/8" groups - won't happen. Don
