Videos tagged with 208 Grain Bullet

This video explores the 'heavy for caliber' trend in rifle ammunition by comparing a 150-grain .30-06 Springfield bullet with a 208-grain Hornady ELD Match bullet at 100 yards. The experiment uses a Lab Radar to measure muzzle and 100-yard velocities, demonstrating that while the lighter bullet starts with more energy, the heavier, aerodynamically efficient bullet retains more energy at 100 yards. This suggests a potential ballistic advantage for heavier bullets even at shorter ranges.
