[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 244692, member: 1521"] It's too bad a velocity value and SL std couldn't be chosen for use by all makers. With this, dimension based predictions would be really close if the maker ensured their bullets(each lot) matched reported 'standard'. I would vote for 2500fps @ ICAO as a condition standard because ballistic software could be easily tweaked from that point. I don't think lowering assigned BC will work -if it don't! I think it will leave everyone wondering or speculating as to what numbers to use with Bergers.. For example, someone releasing VLDs at 3500fps will be left guessing on adjustments needed from your lower velocity 'average'. They'll have to do this because their software already accounts for BC falling(in one way or another). But if they knew the BC at any single supersonic velocity, they could determine their appropriate muzzle velocity BC for entry, and simply let the software go from there. Not trying to be difficult. I'm glad you're addressing it. [/QUOTE]
