I recently upgraded my Motorola Razr Maxx cell phone to an HTC One M8. I had Applied Ballistics Software synced up to the web in my old phone before switching phones. When I was setting up the new phone I synced Applied Ballistics to the web and it brought over all my loads. The problem is it...
Have you been able to figure out why this one particular barrel tends to lower the BC's?
Another question:
This particular case shows an example where you measured a BC that was significantly lower than the norm. Have you ever found a scenario where a BC was significantly higher than...
To me the big selling point of something like this is the ability to get the same information normally provided by some type of mobile ballistic software but without the delicate electronics, battery life, etc. If it is not available with scope correction factors accounted for in the drop...
When you say you have seen significant BC variances, can you provide us with more detail? What was the accuracy of your overall BC tests and what was a significant variation? 1%? 15%? I think everyone agrees that there is always some BC variation (1%), the disagreement is over how large the G7...
This is a very good point that should not be taken lightly. I saw this a few months ago. To make a long story short, the shooter was shooting amazing groups at 200 yards, then moved to the 500 yard target and the bullets were impacting much higher than predicted. After confirming inputs...
Michael,
When you calibrated your scope, how much elevation was dialed in? Did you dial in 35 or 40 MOA of elevation between groups to allow any errors to be more easily quantified? If I understand your data, your scope tracks exactly? The data you provided suggests that the bullet is flying...
Yes, I understand the terminology. The point is that the G7 curve and G7 BC's are a better match (less velocity dependence) for VLD's or ULD's than the G1.
Michael,
Try this:
Start by assuming the Litz measured G7 BC of your bullet is accurate. Confirm the actual travel per click of your...
A couple more questions:
Can this be set up with drops corrected for scope adjustment errors?
I assume it only is accurate to transonic ranges because it relies on density altitude instead of using temperature?
A few comments/questions:
I think you are correct, all BC's have some velocity dependence. This dependence is minimized the closer the bullet in question matches the standard to which you are using. For example, VLD type bullets that are the subject of this thread will have much less...
This is interesting. It looks like you can get it with several "generic" wheels or it can be ordered with a custom wheel calibrate to one's exact setup? The idea of this seems excellent to me, no messing around with PDA's, dead batteries, etc. No electronics to break. With a custom wheel...
