tobnpr, the barnes TSX boat tail hollow point has a BC of .323, the spitzer boat tail with the plastic tip has a BC of .377, both are 110 grains though.. and i didnt use the a-max in the comparison because i wanted to eliminate bullet type and construction as a variable, and couldnt find an a-max for the 6.8, which is what i was trying to find first before using a barnes, and none of these cartridges are ballistically fantastic after 800 yards, even if i was the type to take these extremely long range shots at a deer, which i dont, and usually hunt sub 200 yard ranges, i seriously doubt the 100ft/lbs difference at beyond 100 yards is going to do much with bullets made to expand at much higher velocities
i love the a-max bullets, ive been a user of hornady bullets for a while and the a-max are very efficient in long range ballistics, unfortunately without them making a 110 grain 6.8mm a-max bullet it just wouldnt have been a fair comparison
