What's the best nose shape for long range shooting?

RE: What's the best nose shape for long range shooting?
That, again, is the sort of information I'm hoping to get with my questions. While the BC of the money bullet is higher, especially while it is above the speed of sound, the likely better accuracy of the Postell in Kurt's rifle and more stable flight through the transonic velocity range (1347-897 fps) enables that bullet to hold it's line to the target better.

Now if a money design is more accurate in a particle rifle then the higher BC might be a worth while advantage, but to go with a higher BC design that isn't as accurate may not be the best choice when keeping your shots in the target is the goal.
