[QUOTE="rammac, post: 1912453, member: 27761"] In my opinion you are incorrectly assuming that the higher impacts are are due to the load being hotter when in fact it's probably due to higher BC values that are creating a flatter trajectory. Temperature has a greater impact on trajectory. Higher altitudes usually result in lower temperatures. Higher altitudes will also cause the pressure to drop. All of those changes at higher altitudes will produce higher BC values. [/QUOTE]
