[QUOTE="Nimrodmar10, post: 561125, member: 36369"] You can figure that the advertised B.C. is correct, but even with a chronograph you can't be sure that your velocity is. Plug in different muzzle veolocities until the ballistics program matches the real drops match. That figure will be your true velocity. Don't necessarily believe your chronograph. If in doubt measure your vejocity at the muzzle and at 100 yards, preferably at the same time. Plug those figures into a B.C. computing program and if the B.C. doesn't match the advertised B.C. then your chronograph is probably off. [/QUOTE]
