[QUOTE="Hugnot, post: 2794677, member: 115658"] Everybody "plays" with numbers including Berger & the badly flawed Berger Sg calculator that shooters use to select bullets that cost up to & over $75 per box or. $0.75 each. Sg or ballistic estimators are used to establish standards for bullet design & selection including our DOD for ammo & weapon design & acquisition (standards). I believe the DOD specifies a Sg of 1.5 but need to verify. The Miller stuff seems valid - I have shot bullets that have printed sideways bullet holes when the Miller stuff came up with a Sg of less than 1.0. I don't want to load up a big batch of ammo that has "marginal stability" that might be "just fine" for others. I might need to shoot near sea level on a cold sunny day (cold/high pressure). Each to their own - I expect stuff to work good every time & place. [/QUOTE]
