[QUOTE="happyfast79, post: 2274290, member: 119709"] Super sonic 22 Lr has accuracy issues at longer range because the bullet is not going very much over the speed of sound, and when that bullet slows back down it goes from super sonic ( faster than the speed of sound) to subsonic ( less than the speed of sound) this transonic transition makes the bullet act unpredictable and can change its flight path at long range. That’s the reason I’m shooting subsonic ammo as it never has to go through that transition. But any way, you can look up the aprox BC of the 22 bullet your interested in and put the velocity and environmental factors into and ballistics calculator and it will tell you all you would need to know as far as bullet drop.
