[QUOTE="jebel, post: 1597014, member: 106189"] That’s a loaded question. I work backwards. I start with the bullet I need to kill the chosen animal, including terminal characteristics. I accept how far I’m willing or able to take that shot. I make sure I know how fast it needs to be moving to do it’s job. With those inputs, it’s just calculating. The velocity needed at the muzzle depends on the bullet’s BC. The cartridge necessary depends on the muzzle velocity needed. Works for 1000 yards or 100. [/QUOTE]
