All the Ballistic Coefficients in One Place

Comparing the 22s to the 6mms.

You might be surprised.

BC is one thing. How fast you're running them is another.

You are correct. And usually you can run the 22s faster than the 6 mm. So they should even flatter.

Remember...BC's are only valid in the conditions they were established in.....change ANY thing such as altititude,humidity,temperature,and /or velocity and the BC changes. Also,when you increase velocity you increase drag thereby increasing rate of deceleration. Just because muzzle velocity increases say 200fps,the bullet's terminal velocity is not 200fps more. Just some things to think about.
Stay safe.

left out the Sierra .224 pointed 95gr, G1 .600, maybe useful in the larger 22 cases.
and the Sierra .243 110gr, G1 .617.

Agree! Well said!
