Any idea on a bc number?
What does "... had the tips pointed ..." mean?
How where the bullets brought to a sharper point than factory my friend?
Do they make a tool for that or where you channeling your inner Gunnery Sergeant Beckett

I assume he has a Hoover or Whidden bullet pointing die
Thank you gentlemen. I figured as much, just curious. I wonder how hard I could push these in an -06.

Pretty good bit I imagine, I have been testing Berger 205 Elite Hunters in 24” 30-06 with RL 16 to 2675 FPS before I got some ejector marks (no heavy bolt lift, but ejector marks are enough for me to stop). Got some Juggs loaded to test. Maybe 2750-2800 if you like ‘em spicy.
How long is that barrel Jabot? I have been slinging Juggs out of my 20” at about 2600 FPS, but it is hard on my brass
That’s probably about 2525 -2535 in my barrel. I do have a good node at 2530 in my 20” 42.2 IMR 4064 in Norma brass.
I use Lapua as well. The high node with IMR 4064 for me is 43.5 at 2593. Puts noticeable ejector marks on the softer Norma brass, but no heavy bolt lift or super flat primers.
