When a object traveles thruogh the Atmosphere the weight has no bering of how fast it drops of how far it drifts. Dr B [/ QUOTE ] True, but in the real world, the heavy for caliber bullets will have a much higher bc than the light for caliber bullets. This translates into more tof for the heavier, higher bc bullet but despite this, the heavier higher bc bullet will have less wind drift. [/QUOTE]
