Great explanation top pin. On that subject is also the fact that the BC of a projectile is changed once it is fired out of the barrel. It is now in so many words deformed with rifling grooves therefore lowering its BC slightly and changing its ability to dissipate the atmosphere in flight which...

I bought one of the new light carbons for a Howa short action build and the action fit is perfect. Great colors on the finish.

More truer words could not have been spoken! We shoot all the time here in the wind and it is definitely the #1 factor to consider. It gets real interesting when you get 2 different wind directions. We’re still learning how to compensate for it.

I guess th ere built off Sako action

That’s what I wish he had in his mag Feenix
