.243 Win Nosler Expansion Tip 90gr | 3,050 fps | 24" — Manufacturer's published test barrel length | 0.403 G1 | 1,859 ft-lbs | 0.218 | 9.6 ft-lbs |
.300 Win Mag Browning Long Range Pro 195gr | 2,900 fps | ~26" — Not published for this load — this is the typical test barrel length for the cartridge | 0.303 G7 | 3,641 ft-lbs | 0.294 | 34.5 ft-lbs |
These velocities were measured in different barrels (24" and 26"). Velocity rises with barrel length, so the muzzle figures are not like-for-like — the further apart the barrels, the less the comparison is telling you about the loads. Lengths marked "~" are the cartridge's typical test barrel, not a published spec for that load.
