I’ve been curious how the RMR 75s have been flying. I haven’t loaded any of them yet.

Might be easier to work up than Hornadys, then.
On the original topic, I just looked at some BCs. .243 G7 is better than anything less than 90gr, and this one is untipped. Color me pessimistic. Reminds me of the gun company that decided they were going to make silencers and blabbed all over the internet about 109dB with supersonic 5.56. Sometimes newcomers don’t know how to measure properly and think they’ve achieved “nevah bin dun befoe” on their first whack.

Again, BC is based on several factors, including velocity. They could be posting the max value rather than the average of several velocities. I've shot the 75 Amax out of my 223AI at 3050 FPS and found the BC to be better than what was on the box. That added 150 FPS really makes a difference compared to a standard 223 load.
The BC value is printed to get you close, just like the velocity on a box of ammo.
Comparing them between manufacturers is similar to the horsepower game that auto manufacturers play.

I get it they are using the max BC from some hot rodded Creedmore load, while technically correct its still disingenuous. Better to post the numbers from .223/5.56 loads out of reasonable barrel lengths because I doubt many people are going to be loading these in a 22 Creed.
