Announcing two new books:
Applied Ballistics for Long Range Shooting - 3rd Edition
and
NEW Ballistic Performance of Rifle Bullets 2nd Edition
These books are available for pre-order now at a $5 discount, and will ship first week of December in time for Christmas.
So what's new in these latest editions?
The Flagship book: Applied Ballistics for Long Range Shooting is updated and expanded to include Weapon Employment Zone (WEZ) analysis, which is the study of hit percentage; how different environmental uncertainties and ballistic performance add up to determine your chances of hitting targets. Also, the academic subjects like spin drift, stability, and ballistics programs are augmented with live fire experimentation on the subjects. This book also includes the latest version of the Point Mass Ballistics solver on CD for PC. This latest edition does not include the library of bullet data. That library has outgrown an appendix, and now exists as a separate reference book: Ballistic Performance of Rifle Bullets
Ballistic Performance of Rifle Bullets contains the current library of all modern bullets tested by the Applied Ballistics Laboratory. Expanding on the first edition of this title which had data on 400 bullets from .22 to .408 caliber, this second edition contains data on 533 centerfire bullets from .22 thru .50 caliber. In addition to the centerfire bullet data, this edition contains live fire data on 90 types of rimfire ammo which were all tested for muzzle velocity and BC thru 5 different barrels of various twist and length configurations. This library of experimental test data is the most extensive and accurate resource ever assembled for small arms bullets. Numerous modern ballistics solvers and programs draw from the library of tested BC's that are published in this book.
