Saw this on another forum, if this is a repeat - oh well, it’s worth it flag

Very cool! What's interesting on the subsonic bullet, is the direction of flight vs. the angle the bullet is going. The bullet is angled slightly upwards while the trajectory path is forwards. We've talked about bullets doing this at long range when they go into the transonic and subsonic range. It also decreases your BC.

Might it also be a factor related to twist rate (over/under stabilization)

Yes, it certainly could. It would help to know which bullet they are firing also.

That was indeed interesting.
I have a pretty short attention span so when I noted that these videos were like 7—10 minutes long I figured I'd just skip through and catch the highlights.

Instead,I watched them both several times and then called my wife over to view excerpts.

Thanks for posting!
