True BC of Nosler 30 cal 180 and 200 gr Accubonds

Nosler puts them at .507 and .588. Has any one heard of any other values that may have been tested independently?

I run EXBAL on a pocket PC and want to make sure I get as accurate as possible for 600+ yd shooting.

I am not aware of any independent testing to verify these BCs. However, Nosler, Hornady, and Sierra have always had a good reputation for publishing accurate numbers. Unlike Barnes, which always put a lot of blue sky into theirs and has only recently begun to revise its numbers to be a smidge more accurate.

If they're wrong, they probably aren't very wrong.

The AccuBond bc's will work well as they are listed.......I have shot them to 1K and also use the Exball program
