[QUOTE="985, post: 1304197"] Greyfox, People know the truth when they hear it. I concur with your statement about "Hunting applications." AB is good enough. However, for many reasons it isn't for long range shooting. If one sets aside the approach to fudging the drag curve, the code similarities (if not identical) to sixty year old code, the differences between AB and X-ring are draconian in nature. It's truly apples to oranges. Do you really think that AB is in any way similar to missile system software? I'm surprised to hear you say that you have spent forty years in the scientific industry, and yet, you overlook the mantissa / hardware issues. It is IMPOSSIBLE to obtain a Coriolis solution when utilizing AB; yet most shooters who have attended my courses who use AB utilize the Coriolis subroutine. That routine produces errors 100% of the time, yet the shooters haven't a clue... They miss, they go back to their software, try to figure out what went wrong, then miss again. We get them straightened out. "You should not teach the philosophies of man mingled with scientific facts." Not to boast, however, if you are seeking a long range shooting Phd, come out to the Mountain Shooting Center and take one of our long range mountain shooting course(s). You Will be glad that you did. [/QUOTE]
