Default t/c xtp bullets

does anybody know the bc of the tc xtp 240 grain & the 300 grain bullets both measure .452 in diameter & both have the black sabots ?
i don 't believe these are xtp mag bullets just mag express sabots. i believe the 300 grain may have a .180 per hornady catalog;& i don't see any .452 regular xtp's just xtp's mags. any info would be greatly appreciated & which do you perfer thank-you. i will be doing mostly deer hunting with these bullets & using 90 grains of blackhorn 209 & cci m primers & 26" t/c barrel

You are correct... .160 on the xtp 240, and .180 on the xtp 300. Per hornady .210 on the xtp 300 mag..

The 240 grain .452 XTP is a magnum bullet. There is a 250 grain .452 XTP bullet.

The 240 grain and 300 grain .430 XTP bullets have better ballistic coefficients; .205 and .245. i've killed about 20 deer and a big bunch of wild hogs using the .240 grain .430 XTP bullet.
