[QUOTE="Hugnot, post: 2794646, member: 115658"] What, marginally stable! ^^^ Running my quicky Sg calculator for a 2000 ft elevation with a standard pressure of 27.82 [ATTACH alt="Screenshot (618).png"]454650[/ATTACH] I comes up with a Sg of 1.36 the same as the Berger Sg that uses a standard Altitude - Pressure conversion vs. common sense barometer reading. I live at 3500 feet above sea level and my barometer as I read it at this moment reads 29.57 in Hg, our friendly weather lady at local TV weather has the pressure at 29.75 (TV weather obs. downhill). The Berger Sg estimator is flawed as it uses standard pressures at specified altitudes like: [ATTACH type="full" alt="Screenshot (499).png"]454647[/ATTACH] My guess is that the Berger guy who did the Sg estimator thought shooters could not read barometers or look at local weather reports. Don't mess with the Berger Sg calculator - its probably designed to sell Berger bullets. A thunderstorm in Death Valley would improve the Sg values of Berger bullets. [/QUOTE]
