The advantage of having a more heavy weight at distance is that the diabolo shape will decelerate faster than a slug shape, and when it start loosing speed it might flight erratically because rotation speed will decrease at a much lower rate.
Having more mass helps to extend the range where the stabilization is lost. The BC will help with wind drift, and that is affecting the ammo in flight before losing stabilization.
So it's a combination of many factors, but one thing that it's sure is that the ammo plays a very important factor at the long range shooting. That's why you see people that compete expending time selecting ammo, sorting pellets and making sure that part is taken care, wrong ammo will throw off accuracy even at 40 yards
It's the arrow, the bow and the Indian
