[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 1090825, member: 13632"] I would say Litz book is a solid help and good info written in a way that every one from the layman to ballistic geek will learn from it but it is not necessary to be able to shoot. I'll disagree with the previous statement about shooting and finding your own BC, if you use a quality G7 BC like is on the side of a box of Berger bullets and your not within stupid close then you have other issues. You can shoot every 100 yards and force a program to give you the corrections you need BUT when you have a dramatic elevation, temp or range change you'll be of again because your forcing it. When you nail your input data you don't need to force a program!! There was a time back when Exbal was the ticket that it would take 5-6 stepped G1 BC's to express the trajectory of a 300 gr SMK to a mile, now I can take the single G7 number from Litz and take it a mile + with expectations of only needing to tune my velocity a little, but nailing all my inputs with a quality G7 lets me narrow down my tuning to just a couple slight variables.
