Very good point, I'm also curious...BCRider said:Well, since the bullets are very close to the same diameter and the weights are the same for sake of argument the distance is going to be purely based on the velocity if both are shot from level and at the same height.
I still fail to see what this has to do with the price of oranges...... Is there a reason why you asked about the cartridges specifically instead of just asking "two bullets of the same size and weight leave their barrels at x and y velocities....."?
I ran a few bullets through a ballistics program, using factory velocities and bc's, and a couple different elevations. They all showed between 1800 and 2200 yards.
