[QUOTE="Don A Parsons, post: 1226704, member: 97414"] Simple question please ! I'm not sure if this is the thread too ask this question, so I'll keep it short ! I'm a normal game hunter/ paper plinker with the odd outings on metal targets in the 500 yard range,,, might step it up "Latter on down the road". As a close range game harvester that normally takes down critters at 40 to 140 yards, and once in a while up too 300 + yards on a blue moon every 3 or 4 years do I need too know anything about BC & SD. I've never used it in target shooting since the rifles and cartages with bullets are made by factories,,, so I'm guessing that this BC & SD have been worked out by book smart folk. Question is,,, at what yardage do I need to take in account this BC & SD thing. Been hunting for 40 years and had 1 deer escape me from bad shot placement at 90 ish yards, headed to the big bores after that too knock them down where they stand. Does this BC & SD play a role I my close range harvests ? If so, where Do I find info on it/ or thread. PS: I have done some reading of BC & SD, so I'm aware of what it means. Thanks from Western Canada/ the Americas pal Don [/QUOTE]
