probably something to do with the bullet weight might produce less momentum and less penetration that way?
it starts out with a much higer velocity and actually more energy but has a BC of .450 instead of .496 (Federal Gold Medal 175)
but i think it still out paces the .308 just im too lazy to calculate this when the ballistic changes at differnt velocities
accuracy is great ive herd some people say recoil is less... i cant tell the differnce... thier velocities are higher i can notice a differnce between Aussie surplus 144 grain for example kicks like a .223 not that any of these .308 loads kick that much (cause its a ligher bullet at probably similar velocities)
now then accuracy is comperable and they both out pace 168 grain (federal gold medal match) yet 168 gr does better at 100-300y id say
my rifle likes 175 grain a lil better but its hard to say for sure its close
