[QUOTE="RuninL8, post: 2611628, member: 109233"] Bullet stability, there are a few books out there that really dive into the topic, and if I’m honest, some of it goes over my head, but I get the general principles. Terminal ballistics is a whole other animal, and it’s something you will need to start applying if you want to start shooting beyond 700y. Applied Ballistics book series and ballistics studies.com books are a great resource. For the practical side of things I actually build long range precision rifles and accurize factory rifles. I have literally shot the senecios I outlined. What it really boils down to barrel harmonics, that bullet leaving the barrel at approximately the same speed and in the same wave form every shot. In order for that to happen the rifle has to return to battery the exact same way ever single shot. I’m starting down a rabbit hole here, but just know a 100y test isn’t enough. You can absolutely start there, but long range precision shooting will require more than that. I’m happy to got down the rabbit hole further, any questions just let me know. [/QUOTE]
