      Working with rsterne (Bob’s Boat tails) on some Air rifle moulds
      We have come up with the following design
      7.5″ Twist

      Post if you have any interest and will see what we can do.

        Interested in this, particularly if a HP can be made…. even if the Meplat must be pushed back to 0.109″ diameter….

          I am building a new PCP where a hollowpoint version of this, at about 65 gr., would be ideal…. Now that Al is playing around with making his RG moulds available for bullets with a smaller Meplat, I would really like to see if there is anyone else interested in seeing this design take off…. Here is a drawing of the suggested changes for a HP version….

          If you would like to see this proceed to a Group Buy, please post your interest here….

          NOTE:  Recent testing of other BBTs shows that the twist estimates are conservative…. I’m pretty sure that this bullet will work in a 9″ twist….
