Maxiball BC?
#5
I ran the numbers thru this site http://gundata.org/ballistic-coefficient-calculator/
and used the round nose as the closest design and got .346 what I would consider high for that bullet.

That would be nice, but i'm sure it's not close to that.
Lyman lists the .54 cal 430gr at .160. They list the .50 at .95 which has to be a mistake for the 370gr. Hell, a round ball is .70
The .54 is heavier than the .50 which should give it a better BC, but it bigger in diameter which takes BC away.
That's why I guess they may be similar. I guessed the .50 at .150.
