    I was just comparing AB, Strelok pro & Trasol. At first AB was predicting 10moa difference from the other 2 solvers @ 1 mile, (all inputs are the same) & I ended up trying a basic G7 BC in place of the CDM I purchased earlier. Then I changed it back to the CDM & it was much closer. Don't know why it did that but it's ok now.
    But when I did the swap to the G7 BC it automatically put in .374 for the BC? Did the same thing when I looked at the 230 Hybrid in the bullet library. The Berger website lists it as .368 G7.
    So is this an update to the BC or what?
    Thanks.
     
    Berger revised some of their BCs down slightly last year based
    on Doppler testing by AB . Just get out and shoot and see what
    bc works for your system : the CDMs have proved very accurate
    for me in several rifles / bullets .
     
    Thanks for the response. The BC was revised down from .743 G1 to .717 G1 (don't remember what the G7 was) but the BC in ABs bullet library is a higher G7 than the one published on Bergers website.
     
    I checked the data and talked with Bryan yesterday about the information on the Berger website. In this case, they have not updated to the most recent data. What you have in the app is only a couple months old, what is on the website is old data.

    This is one of the benefits of the AB Connect™ system. What is in the app is correct and current with the information on that bullet in the server.
     
    Thanks Doc. I was hoping you would chime in. I was able to get out last weekend & shot it out to almost 1600yds. The .374 G7 worked pretty well in the other apps. I trued the AB app with the custom drag & it's working well. Unfortunately I need to tweak my load since the new brl is running faster than it was during initial load development. Back to the drawing board...
