[QUOTE="Veteran, post: 2812659, member: 118038"] I believe you should use G1 if all you are looking at is Muzzle Velocity anyway? G1 is normally chosen for flatter, shorter shaped bullets, and G7 for boat tailed VLD bullets and its my understanding that G7 is a lot more applicable over longer ranges where the VLD shape makes more difference as the bullet loses velocity and is more subject to drag.....doesnt seem to apply much to calculating muzzle velocity?
