What's that old addage...launch it faster and it slows down faster? Launch it slower and it slows down slower. Seems to be true.

that superformance load is a 95 gr sst, b.c. .355, s.d. .230

seriously though, run the calculators and you will see the same surprise i did

i thought the superformance wouldn't be a fair comparison as a non-standard hot load, but turned out it didn't matter

sure a custom twist and running 105's and up will look much better against the Grendel
