    Assistance with Leica Ballistic tool (Geovid)

    Hey team, having some trouble here. I'm trying to input some custom data for a particular load into a microSD card to then sync with my Geovids

    What is the difference between g and grains? My projectile is a 215grain berger hybrid.

    I have my data set in metric, my zero is 200m. It seems to think the weight of my 215grain hybrid is infact 13.9g.. but when I switch to imperial it automatically changes the weight to 215grains

    I'm wanting to ensure my data is correct. Anyone able to clarify this for me? Cheers

    IIRC a gram (g) is about 15.3 grains, so 14g is about right

    Edit: online calculator says 215 grains is 13.93 grams
