    Ballistics of various calibres and coefficients

    I put this chart together the other night using max load fps from an ADI manual, then input them all into the BallisticAE program.



    I used accubonds and sst's for the projectiles as I have found they perform really well on the animals I have shot.
    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?
