[QUOTE="Thor, post: 170039, member: 6396"] Meichele, I'm surprised you've found your B.C's to vary so widely. I would think that a true B.C would be one of the constant values in the ballistic formula. Weather (temp, altitude, and pressure) will vary by day or location. Muzzle velocity might even vary ever so slightly (wide temperature extremes) but shouldn't be enough to matter..especially with a temp insensitive powder. Those B.C. values you had were with the weather corrections, based on the specific day? I guess I don't understand how the B.C would vary so much. I thought the ballistic coefficient was a measure of the bullet's efficiency in flight. I would think that would remain a constant value. I've read some of your articles/post on a number of your hunts. Congatulations on a job well done. You live somewhere I'd love to hunt someday. Alaska's incredible. Thanks again, Jace [/QUOTE]
