Hey it was my pleasure and an opportunity for a learning process for me. I enjoyed it... I am just to dang cheap to keep throwing those things down range @ paper, bottles, or Tangerines.

I know the math suggests a 1/24 but I still think you/I should shoot some from a 1/28 just to verify. What can it hurt? I am really thinking that 200 as it is built is a great looking bullet - but adding the the Ballistic Tip naturally adds length. And as I have suggested that may be exactly why the Barnes offering is 195 instead of 200.

If you do not want to try the 1/28 send me some tips and I get to it at some point.

Of course you already know it is not a big deal to me anyway because I am going to use the bullet as a hollow point for everything that I do. I just hope Dave is not forced to change the 200 HP down to a 195??? HP because of economics. It may not be to prudent to be trying to market 2 bullets of near the same weight.
