[QUOTE="Michael Eichele, post: 130734, member: 1007"] [ QUOTE ] The BC is the BC for only one set of atmospheric/environmental conditions. Change any of the atmospheric/environmental conditions and the effective BC changes. At least that's my understanding. [/ QUOTE ] Now that I can agree with. catshooter quoted: [ QUOTE ] Himidity, air density and temperature do NOT affect BC. [/ QUOTE ] Then catshooter quoted [ QUOTE ] Actually...

Change any of the atmospheric/environmental conditions and the effective BC changes. [/ QUOTE ] Mike quoted: [ QUOTE ] And local BC will have to be adjusted for conditions, unless you have the means to adjust the drag curve. Depends on your ballistic software. BC would be a constant with a matching drag curve(not G1), but because software available does not reference a matched curve for your bullet, under the specific -local conditions, apparent BC goes all over the place. And worst of all, bullets are not made to ANY standard. Every lot is different from any maker. So their BC is bogus to begin with. [/ QUOTE ] So really catshooter, you agree that there are other factors than just form. Am I right. That means to me that you just dont like me. You know, you say one thing then say another....
