need some ballistics help
Posted: Thu Dec 31, 2015 5:02 pm
Hi all - Happy New Year
I'm preparing for my first high power match this weekend and will not be able to sight in at all ranges until practice time just before the match.
When zeroed at 100 yards, I needed an additional 5 1/4 minutes to get to 200 yards. Is there a way to predict how much more elevation I'll need to reach pigs, turkeys and rams?
.316 calibre, 157.3 grain, LFN cast bullet, with gas check, estimated B.C. is around 0.2291 based on looking at similar designs on NOE web-site
18.4 grains IMR 4227
Thanks,
-Steve
