Midsouth Varmint Nightmare Extreme BC
I need some assistance. I am going to Boomershoot and want to use the 55 grain .224 bullet in Midsouth's Varmint Nightmare Extreme bullet. I need the BC so that I can make a drop chart but I cannot find it anywhere. It shoots well in my AR, 1/2 inch and some 1/4 inch groups at 100 yards. The consensus is that they are made by Nosler, some say Hornady. Any help would be appreciated.

Re: Midsouth Varmint Nightmare Extreme BC
The .157 may well be it. Do not know for sure.. My 55 grain Midsouth do have a Cannelure and I do put a very slight crimp in it for shooting in my AR. In the other rifles (224 cal) I do not bother with crimping. They are in fact made by Nosler for both Midsouth and Midway (Dog town bullets) and are a basic cup/lead bullet. They work very well, for the money, on various varmints and do save money, when you shoot thousands at times. Bill K

Re: Midsouth Varmint Nightmare Extreme BC
Thanks for the info. I should have said that I have the hollow point bullets, I forgot that they have different bullets. Mine do not have the cannelures either. I have the Redding bushing die and it has been working out well for me.
