    Calculation of B.C.

    You use two chronographs some distance apart from each other and compare the difference in velocity. I dont know of any english versions so try this swedish one: http://www.robsoft.nu/ballistik_se/bc.asp?MainID=3 Explanation: velocity at first chrono (m/s) velocity at second chrono (m/s)...

    Horizontal Stringing

    -Poor shooting position. Bad natural point of aim. -Recoil anticipatory behaviour. It isn't always the rifle that performs bad. Sometimes it is...

    Trajectory vs. Humidity

    Increased humidity makes the round hit higher. That will be my contribution if that was news to you.

    Vertical drift from crosswinds
