It's all about ease of manufacturing. You can make secant ogives on a lathe using solid copper that you'd never be able to duplicate with standard bullet swaging dies. Also, to change bullets, it's a simple as changing the program for the CNC lathe as opposed to buying $5-$10K in new swaging dies. But, as in anything, nothing comes for free. You end up with long-for-caliber bullets because the monolithics are less dense which translates into increased barrel friction, skin drag and stability issues. It's harder to stabilize a long bullet than it is a shorter bullet. On paper they end up with astronomical BCs, but in reality, no so much. They look cool though.
All true, lucky I guess these were designed around this rifle by po, a hide member.
His shooting
100 yard 3 shot
612 yard 4 shot
612 3 shot
His best, guessing
Got a cool video somewhere of him taking a deer at 860 yards+, can't find it
Good enough for me BC for me!

BC, will check, it is on the boxes
only pic is from the PO when I bought it
Nothing fancy, Single shot Mcmillan action/stock, barrel is big friggin Lilja (picture is deceptive, it is nearly as long as I am tall 5'11"), smith escapes me... NF scope on it now, not sure what he had on it in pic

I just replaced my Barrett M107-A1 with a Steyr HS 50-M1 shot it on Thursday night with some low loaded ammo from the Barrett.
Looks like it will shoot.
I have the 720, 762, 798 & 802 CEs to try in the Steyr as well as the ADI FMJs.
The Barrett.

Nice!
Projo next to a 223
Bc for the light one is .92 if I remember correctly, the bigger 2 are 0.97
