In order to stabilize a bullet, you need an SG of at least 1.0. However, this is just the bare minimum. An SG of 1.0 provides marginal stability and does not leave much wiggle room for error. Therefore, here at Berger we recommend having an SG of 1.5 in order to optimize your bullet’s Ballistic Coefficient (BC) and allow room for error.
