Long Range Bullets (1/4) Technologies Compared - Rex Reviews

[@ddyoder]

It pains me to think of how much less valuable other content is that is posted on KZbin which gets higher acclaim/views than Rex' series. Thanks for creating and sharing -- you are bringing knowledge (and even wisdom) to your audience. Keep up the great work and know that your efforts are appreciated!

[@thestonethatthebuilderrefu5231]

ddyoder I know right? I been watching KZbin for about five years now and trying to find interesting and EDUCATIONAL videos on gun technology. I just finally found Rex a couple of weeks ago and I can't believe I'm getting this education for free.

[@wcdjmase]

Thank you for all the information. I'm just stating in long range shooting and am working with a REM 700 on 7 Rem mag. I did a lot of medium range hunting growing up, but never understood the principles of long range until watching your video shows

[@wadesipes9321]

Alco makes bullets using equipment designed by Dave Corbin of Corbin swage Die. Dave came up with all the theory on the rebated rim deflecting muzzle turbulence. He would also say it uniforms the transition area from bearing surface to flight, so that (on a properly cut and lapped crown) the bearing surface of the bullet will stop touching the rifling on all sides at the exact save time. More uniformly than a standard boat tail. The truth is that during the bullet making process, the last operation points the jacketed bullet giving it is ogive, it uses a cup punch to cradle the rear of the bullet and press the front of the bullet into point forming die. well the cup of the cup punch intended for boat tails was too thin at its end and kept splitting under the pressure of the swage press (much more than a reloading press). They rebated the rim to give the cup punch a 90 degree shoulder to support the load of the bullet pointing operation. So like most things they did it for ease of manufacturing purposes and then sprinkled some ballistic theory on it.

[@wadesipes9321]

I should add that I make the same exact projectiles, aluminum tips and all using Dave Corbins s press, he designed the ULD triple hybrid ogive design Alco is selling.

[@grandillusion1000]

Good bullet introduction, looking forward to the next vid. I'm glad you showed some bullets with polymer tips and hope you'll talk more about their effectiveness and limitations in the next videos. Long after I bought a 1000 .338 300 gr Nosler Accubonds I started hearing about the 'tip' issues and started to wonder if I made a mistake. Since then I have switched over to the Berger .338 300 gr OTM Tactical's.

[@PatriotPaulUSA]

Do you have a spread sheet on all this ballistic data for all those brands of bullets in .308 cal like shown at the end? Where can we get this info?

[@rickycinaz]

I have some Hornady 50. bmg now I understand how much thought and science went behind it. 👍

[@zgennaro]

Thanks! Rex, have you tried the new Hornady ELD's yet? The 225 grain 30 caliber bullet boasts a BC of .777. That would reach pretty far in a 300 win mag.

[@LKN4WAR]

anonymous anon Didn't know they made a 225, thanks for the info.

[@barryiwashita6352]

Yes there’s a lot more types of bullets and calibers out there but what u have put out and explained have defined the purpose of weight and profile function .... yes there is a matter of weight for penetration but that is a matter of calibers and what u want to hunt with it... with that said I’m glad the vid wasn’t any longer ... big thumbs up for your vid 👍🏼

[@louisfriendhastaste]

I seem to recall the SMK 175 (which is a hollow point) was not classed as a hollow point by the solicitor general but the hollow point was classe d as a "manufacturing anomoly" thus meaning it wasn't in breach of Hague Convention Declaration III and so Marines could use it as the M118 round ...Love your videos Rex, please keep them coming, they are the best on the web by a mile...

[@steves9285]

with the 175 308 alco bullet can you load that at mag length and and does it handle the jump to the lands

really very well done video & extremely informative as all ofyour vid's are.I've been following you & learning a hell of alot from you for a long time now. thanks for everything you do,share,& teach.

[@prinzeugenvansovoyen732]

8x57IS boat tail heavey ball ammo has 4,33 BC so it kind of makes me wonder wouldnt be a heavey tip/ high density material be the best for long range like a bullet with long aluminum body, copper jacket and a large and sharp tungsten tip with 2 places with larger diameter where the jacket hits the rifling ,a ring in the front and one in the back similar to artillery with their copper bands and the spanic 7.92x40 Cetme except of a tungsten carbide tip and a pressed in low spot in the jacket so it onley has barrel contact in front and back insead of full lenght also interesting are bullets that have a similarly shaped tip on the back of the bullet out of a lightweight material to counter / eliminate the drag from the vacuum behind the bullet

[@scottywhittaker988]

Always enjoy the info Rex! Great vid

Great video as usual ;) Just one question, do you have the link to the site for aluminium tipped bullet please ?

[@rodblair3705]

How long did it take you to get all the boat tails to stand up in a row like dominos

[@skuripandaburns3489]

Rex, have you perhaps tried out the Lapua match bullets (particularly Scenar and Scenar L)?

[@dragoscoco2173]

Great video. One nitpick on physics. Momentum does not matter, from a physical standpoint. Internal ballistics favors heavier projectiles as they take more energy from the gas-bullet system. External ballistics favors heavier bullets as they have a slower speed and thus loose less energy in travel. Momentum is a physical measure useful only coupled with it's law of conservation to determine the speeds that are attained after all forces take their toll and do their damage.

[@Doc6mm]

I'm glad you stuck with using the g1 bc's in my minds eye and shooting experience I understand them. 0.218 vs 0.278, I just don't have the mental ruler to equate that to field performance.

[@hunt4020]

Are there any factory ammunition that uses Alco bullets?

[@ericday2072]

Does the Berger Elite Hunter for your custom 7mm-300 win-mag remain stable when it goes transonic, and at what distance do you expect it to go transonic? I look forward to your 3k shot video.

[@oscartalbot6095]

oh and by the way....i love the channel keep up the outstanding work...it is appreciated

[@BooDamnHoo]

Hey Rex...while this vid is ancient by interweb standards, a question: have you actually tested the ALCOs BCs? I've read SOME posts in forums that they are overstating their BCs by a fair amount and wonder if it is true. I'm about to buy some but would like to know their REAL BCs, or a comparison of the calculated ballistic data given their BC vs what really happens. Have you done so or WOULD you do so? I'd also like to hear about real world performance of TROM as well. How well do these guys stack up to the old standard Sierra Matchkings?

[@Schnitzelmann9]

What's with the crooked tips on the Hornadys? Isn't that going to mess with your accuracy?

[@Mockturtlesoup1]

I've always wondered if there were any very high BC(for caliber) .30 caliber bullets(or cartridges that shoot them.) I know they have 220 grain bullets for like .300 win mags, but due to that cartridge being not ideal/efficient for long range applications, I always wondered if there was like a 6.5CM equivalent for a 30 cal, even if it's a wildcat cartridge. With the popularity of .30 caliber rounds in the US, it always surprised me that could never find one.

[@TheCraigy83]

how is the alloy tip attached to the rest of the round ? im stuck with sub 12fpe here in england basically .177 .22 .25 air pellets with the ballistics co efficient of a double decker bus driving through custard 😒 why is the diablo shape so bad ? my .177 go around 850fps that 570ish mph do they heat up in flight ? tar 👍

[@anomie1040]

I have a 6.5 grendal and a 6.8 spc I wished you would have told me their coefficient

[@mattpeacock5208]

It depends on the bullet itself. When you start rolling your own ammo, you will buy bullets as components for reloading and you can buy based on whatever BC you choose.

[@27murano]

Was just wondering what your opinion on the longer for weight gilding metal bullets such as the barns 30 cal's.

[@TiborasaurusRex]

Excellent terminal performance and usually great accuracy.

[@semperfi6288]

Great content!! Keep up the hard work😁 I commented on one of your other videos on the topic of barrel wear and throat burn....lol I belive it was called "Sustained fire & barrellife", talking about the Ballistic efficiency of that Alco through a 7mm Allen Mag.... byond a .408 Chey Tac externally😁 Again, love your content.

[@jam34786]

pretty cool how small arm projectiles are catching up to design/ technology of their bigger artillery round brethren!

[@varmint223]

What's your take on the 7mm mag vs the 28 nosler with a 175 bullet?

[@mattpeacock5208]

Whatever happened to Barnes Xbullets? Is that not a thing anymore??

[@MarcGXE95]

For the audio, sound bounces, so if you pull a tarp on one wall of more you cut the bounce or echo!

[@examine1525]

Since you mentioned the new technology about the Alco ULD bullets, are there any new technologies for the higher calibers such as .338 and above? Also, I hear a lot of hype from the .375 CheyTac breaking distance records for target shooting. How is it able to do that?

[@jamesskiles9694]

Peacemuser this was what I was wondering. that's some insane bc for the size. imagine having a 250 gr with a BC greater than that of 750 amax getting pushed out of a 338 at greater than 3000 fps. that thing would go for miles.

[@TiborasaurusRex]

[@DeerLodgeBlog]

Thought you were saying bull rider design for a minute! lol. Well done as usual.

[@todorp4056]

great video Rex, thanks a lot

[@evilfish456]

Hey Rex! Silly question: When you are talking about bc are you talking about G1 or G7? I'm sure you already told the answer but can't find it on the video. Thanks for the video!

[@evilfish456]

Never mind, at the 15 minute the answer is G1

[@TiborasaurusRex]

lol - yeah - we keep it colloquial in this video as to not confuse new viewers :-)

[@DocLarsen44]

I would assume that the new Hornady bullets with high temp polymer tips are far less expensive than aluminum/alloy tip bullets; is that true or is Hornady charging a premium for their new (for now) heat resistant polymer tips? Any scuttlebutt on other brands developing their own high temp polymer tips? I'm also curious if the new polymer allows for sharper tips? (may be 'different' is a more accurate descriptor than 'new' for the polymer they are using for tips?) Thanks for the great info and explanations, as usual, Rex!

[@scottywhittaker988]

I use the new hornady eld match bullet in 30cal and 208 grain with the heat resistant tip. The g1 is .670. I am a firm believer in the tips, with the old amax at about mid range the group would open up unproportionatly to what it should have I thought. These new ones do not, the 'cone' of impact is exactly linier not exponential, and as a consultation the BC is crazy high for 30 cal

[@atlasintegrations4114]

Brother... You are awesome... Great video... Funny no mention of the 6.5mm... :-)

[@supertruckertom]

Great new information. Thank you. How about the new Nosler RDF? Going to try the 70 grain .421 G1 in my 20" Colt HBAR

[@joshshores5050]

Nosler 140gr. RDF in 6.5cm

[@gunslinger7647]

Have you found that flat base bullets are more accurate at 100 yds ?

[@pete1342]

Gunslinger I've always found that to be true at any range.

[@heavyglassglass]

Rex is actually narrating this video from down a long hallway

[@speedygonzalez8431]

years ago HERTER's sold a coke bottle type bullet claiming the advantages you mentioned. they were the most inaccurate bullets I ever shot..

[@jmax.6587]

that sst bullet with the polymer tip that he examined for the 7mm group is my favorite , its like a hybrid between .243 and .308 , it has plenty good hitting power for hunting much like the 308 and still keeps the higher speed because it is a smaller round much like .22 how the smaller the faster so in my opinion if you want a good hunting and range rifle go with this round the 7mm 08 140 grain , they also make a 7mm which is a very very slightly bigger bullet but with a bigger casing so you can get the extra power you would need to hunt but as far as range it only goes out to about 600 yrds before it is very unrealistic

[@ShinobiHOG]

Good stuff, thanks for the video. I freaking geek out over this stuff so hardcore. Being in Texas I find myself in conversations about shooting fairly often and I can tell I'm way past the normal person's understanding when I start talking about barometric pressure, ballistic coefficient, ammo temperature, etc... and they kinda just nod and agree with whatever I say. Hey, some guys like cars and motorcycles, I like guns and the extreme long range stuff is almost like talking in detail about stealth fighter jets while the other guy is talking about a Honda Civic with a cool aftermarket body kit on it.....

[@TiborasaurusRex]

Haha. I hear ya bro, you are a man after mine own heart...

[@ShinobiHOG]

TiborasaurusRex I appreciate that. I'm of the impression that like minded people tend to gravitate towards each other in the world even if they don't know yet that they have so much in common. I just knew back in the day when I stumbled across your channel it would be one of the most important on KZbin for me. I think of "snipers" for lack of a better term as the all around warrior. The true student athlete. If you've got the IQ for it you can influence the battlefield far beyond any other one to six man squad. Since the constitution classifies able bodied male citizens between the ages of 17-55 as the "unorganized militia" I consider it my duty as an American to become the best warrior that I'm capable of being. I'm optimistic she won't win but if Hillary does get elected I've seen a lot of indicators through open source information and I'm not exaggerating we will enter into a hot war with Russia within a year.....

[@ImNoBSING]

[@hydrogen2121]

Did you ever figure it out ? I’m curious !!

[@davemaximillion5501]

Actually I haven't started on it yet. I ended up building a Howa 6.5 Creedmoor in an MDT monolithic stock. I have picked out powder. Hodgdon H4350 and a series of different bullets. Still need to put a better scope on the 300. It just got put on the back burner.

[@dalesimonds]

Are you using the G1 or G7 drag model for BC's? Ok so I should have waited to ask the question, but why use the G1 when the G7 is appropriate?

[@TiborasaurusRex]

We keep it colloquial in this video as to not confuse new viewers for comparative purposes.

[@Loiczzr]

no 6.5 Creedmoor, I'm surprised ! but great video 👍👍

[@xXspectre170Xx]

Whats the difference between a 7mm rem mag and a 7mm-300 win mag? Also are there times when its better to reference G7 over G1 ballistic coefficients? Which one do people usually refer to?

[@EeroVuori]

7mm rem mag is SAAMI and CIP caliber. 7mm-.300win mag is .300win mag necked down to 7mm bullets. They wary slightly in case capacity. G7 should always be preferred over G1, if using boat tail bullets. G1 is more popular because its higher value looks better in brochures.

[@jeff-cs2bi]

xXspectre170Xx 300mag will get slightly more distance than 7mm

[@LKN4WAR]

xXspectre170Xx G7 is not always the preferred form factor. Hence the reason firing solution software like FFS (Lex Talus corp) doesn't use it but instead uses custom drag curves off G1.

[@EeroVuori]

Question was for 7mm-.300winmag (300winmag neck sized for 7mm bullet), and of 7mm rem mag.

[@LKN4WAR]

The Draugr The 300 WM is .120" longer case than the 7 R.E.M. There is also once fired 300WM Match brass sold by gov and other sources sometimes for low cost. Always a plus.

[@Velocity4000fps]

The bergers are great for hunting, even varmint hunting, devastating on groundhogs.

[@Excedrine]

[@TiborasaurusRex]

Excellent choice indeed.

[@MikeM0331]

Great video RTX. The "hollow point" bullets or open tip match our legal for use in combat. So our 50 BMG bullets in case anyone was wondering. The judge advocate general for the US clarified that in two separate letters back in the 90s. I Think his last name was Hayes. I have seen copies of both letters.

[@LKN4WAR]

MikeM0331 This would be actual rules for sovereign states and formal warefare between them as opposed to terrorists and enemy combatants with no allegiance to a specific state it would seem? For the terrorists it seems anything could be used like LEOs against civilian populations.

I'm looking to buy a long range Precision rifle and I can't make my mind up about what calibre I should use for it I've watched your video on cartridge selection and I have pretty much narrowed it down to three options 7mm rem mag, 300 WIN MAG and 6.5 creedmoor what I am using the rifle for is shooting around ranges of 1000 metres to 1500 metres and I know what you might say go for the 6.5 creedmoor but I want to use it for hunting as well and would like to Hunt up to a max ranges of 1000 metres I live in Australia so these are the distances I am usually in thanks for the help!

[@lordlozz1]

Why dont they design a bullet the same as the above but with the cg ahead of the cp?? Surely this wouldn't be difficult with a FMJ making only the inside tip a heavy core made of lead for example..

[@bmstylee]

It blows my mind on how big the 50 BMG is. The 300 grain 338 LM match king is a big projectile and it is dwarfed by the 50.

[@chaecoco2]

I ordered 100 of the ALCO ULD Target bullets (.308 168gr Rebated Boat Tail ). When inspecting them, I noted hat the aluminum tips were wobbling and not firmly attached to the bullet. This wasn't peculiar to just a few bullets, the entire batch of 100 were this way. I didn't think that was normal so I contacted the company. To date, ALCO has not been forthcoming with about replacing the obviously defective bullets.. Considering the price of these bullets, quality control and customer service needs to be uncompromising. I was just curious what others have experienced.

[@4cefed4g63]

chaecoco2 Mine we're like that as well. They responded immediately and sent me a new batch in better packaging. The new box came with each bullet individually set in a styrofoam form.

[@wickedreelz5028]

Gemmill Shannon the sent me a new box, I emailed them a video with showing 18 out of the 100 I ordered and they 2 day'ed me a 100 when only 18 was a problem.. they took care of me and dis so happily and quickly.. I will say this, the B.C is over rates by a fair bit.. I have done real world chrony work and the stated B.Cs much higher then real world.. we built a 7mm RUM around these bullets that is a solid action slide the bolt out extraction setup on a 28 inch barrel and once we got a load built that the gun liked man do they preform.. the over stated B.c isn't a I just wish they corrected it and listed a true B.C.. this gun is the most accurate gun we have ever done past 2.5km... it is absolitely phenomenal.. if you want insane performance at insane ranges the Alco's are amazing performers.. if you build a gun around a projectile and are after extreme long range precision these bullets are insane.. in 7mm RUM it was wildly hard to build a load that the gun ate up, 7mm and .300 rums imho have never been the easiest cals to build loads for however this gun took as around 55 load revisions to find one it really ate up and gave us the sub half MOA 5 shot groups we knew the gun was capable of.. that's 55 load revisions WITH ONE BULLET, not trying to find bullets the gun liked so going through a lot of loads because of building loads for different bullets... no this was over 55 load revisions on a single projectile... but once we got it.. we got it, gun is printing. 35 MOA 5 shot groups consistently with .5 MOA being a large group.. they deff preform once you find a load, if I would have went 7mm mag I'm sure load dev would have been much easier, I really thought about going 7mm STW because I've never built a STW so we went RUM like a dummy but it turned out to be a very good idea, flatest shooting gun we have ever built period with the ALCO's.

[@TheSamson8]

Hello, I am having Proof research build me a rifle for my ibex hunts, I brought a 7mm on last hunt in Mongolia and it did ok.. was thinking about about going with a 300 wm for the rest of them thoughts? looking for a caliber that has the range, that will shoot flat and will have the knock down power at distance. I know 7mm is popular but to be honest since I have one I was going to go with a different caliber and on the other hand if that is the best one then I will just stick with it. Thanks for any feed back PS before you say use the 7mm you have its heavy and if you have ever been on any hunt like this weight matters...

[@TheCharillz23]

Why are you choosing the berger?

[@CSLFiero]

i think the alcos had some testing done. found they were bellow advertised bc (i suspect many are). on par with the berger. not sure how the berger eol would perform by the same tester, but it seems the alco doesn't buy you much extra. I believe it's the rebated boat tail. It just seems to me that if it were as good as claimed, it would have been a lot more popular. I'll say this though, those tips should be more popular, we know a pointier tip will give gains but I suspect they booger the terminal ballistics. Would like to see a similar length copper solid compared to the eol and alco.

[@skiflyfightdoc]

You are ALWAYS the BEST!

[@ericb.4358]

Very Low Drag (VLD) bullets are often too long to work through a magazine and must be loaded singly. But Berger has VLD Hybrid bullets that combine VLD and long ogive shapes for a great Ballistic Coefficient (BC). This Berger Hybrid shape is short enough to work in most rifle magazines. This Hybrid design reduces wind drift and INCREASES the distance it will retain supersonic flight compared to non Hybrid and non VLD bullets.. Yes the total trajectory height will be higher than a lighter bullet of that caliber and cartridge BUT it will retain the supersonic speed longer thus avoiding transonic "wobble" and less accuracy.

If you perfurate the barrel to lose pressure before the bullet let the muzzle the air will not disturb the bullet. The idea is let the bullet get out of the barrel just by inertia.

So you would lose velocity big time. You would be carrying dead weight. Muzzle blast is not that big of a concern for long range shooters as long as crowning is appropriate.
