Pointed 105 hybrid BC?

[MDM]

What are you all seeing as far as % of increase of BC when pointing the 105 hybrid? I'm using the Whidden dies.

I also use Whidden dies with the #1 insert. The best fit to my trajectory data for 100, 300, 500 & 600 yards was G7 .297, ~8% increase. YMMV

I had them at .290 (g7) outta my 7.5tw @ 2840

I think i used the #0 insert

Good point by Canadian bushman. My results were in an 8" twist @ ~2960 fps and ~ 200' ASL.

I don't remember which insert I have, but its the one that is recommended for vld style bullets. Anyone else have any data that they have confirmed at 1000?

#1 is recommended for sharp point bullets. It is identified by one body groove. The #0 is for bullets that look like older Sierra match designs. It has no groove. #2 is for fairly blunt point bullets and has two body grooves.
