[QUOTE="Bravo 4, post: 2299877, member: 8873"] Very interesting build! Looking at its capabilities makes me think about coming down in caliber for really long range hunting.😁 With your rifle this works at somewhat moderate ranges, the actual number depending on the latitude and direction of fire. Then the spin drift will take over and push things to the left at longer ranges. Between Coriolis effect (horizontal dispersion), Eotvos effect (vertical dispersion often described as Coriolis), spin drift, aerodynamic jump, gravity, sd/es from shot to shot, bullet BC variation, rifle precision capability, and operator error it is amazing that we can hit anything at long range even if we nail the wind call.
