The key to remember here, is that its NOT that the BT bullets are getting more accurate, with range. thats simply not possible, Whats happening is that the FB bullets are getting LESSaccurate, due to its lower B/C, the wind will affect it more and more as distance gets greater and greater.

Does this mean that when there's no wind, they both have equal accuracy? I'd think so 'cause there's no wind drift with either one. It's pretty much well known that two bullets with the same weight but different BC's fired at the same muzzle velocity, the higher BC one will drift less in a given cross wind. But if there's no wind, there won't be any wind drift.
I'll never be convinced that two bullet types, one flat based and the other boattailed, that are perfect in shape and balance, even with different weights but with muzzle velocities having zero fps spread and fired in stable and identical atmospheric conditions, one will be more accurate than the other. One's trajectory path will be greater than the other, but both will be very repeatable so accuracy will be the same with each.
