    So in ballisticAE, there are 8 different drag models, correct? A g7 model is for SPBT's going on what ballistic implies. However if what you guys are saying is true then when you run a bullet through the g7 model is this still wrong because of the listed coefficient is for a g1 model?

    Not sure I understand your question but yes.
    You can't change the drag model after you've selected the bullet. If you want to use g7 then either input the bc value manually or select the bullet from litz s list.

    Ahhh, that's where I've been going wrong. My humble apologies to all involved. Sneeze, I wish you'd turned up earlier!
