[QUOTE="rscott5028, post: 513502, member: 24624"] Mikecr is right. Litz did debunk this myth fairly adequately in this article. [URL="http://www.appliedballisticsllc.com/index_files/EpicyclicSwerve.htm"]Epicyclic Swerve[/URL] The OP references the URL ([URL="http://www.the-long-family.com/bullet_dispersions.htm"]Bullet Dispersions[/URL]) which states that... [FONT=Arial][COLOR=#800000][/COLOR][/FONT] Litz also cites McCoy who was referenced in the URL ([URL="http://www.the-long-family.com/bullet_dispersions.htm"]Bullet Dispersions[/URL]) and does a good job of putting McCoy's work back into perspective as that particular URL takes it out of context. Yes. Epicyclic Swerve exists. No. It's not enough to cause decreasing MOA or group sizes at longer range. Myth busted. However, as others have observed, decreasing MOA at longer ranges can occur due to other factors such as parallax adjustment. -- richard [/QUOTE]
