Thread: Ballistics of various calibres and coefficients

While better speeds could be easily obtained from some of these calibres, I reckon it shows that between the bullet diameters there is very little advantage within normal hunting ranges for a superior coefficient pill to give a real advantage.
What do other members reckon?

The moment of enlightenment...

Do a chart for windage as others have suggested, say 4m/s or similar...

Also, if you're not dialing at 700 yards (max distance on chart) you will miss no matter what cal you use...

Also, also, nice hand writing.
