Thread: trajectory validation distance

To truly verify your MV you need to shoot to a range that is 10 percent less then the point where your projectile goes transonic. If you wish to shoot further where your projectile is subsonic then that is a seperate verification that you need to do aswell. For most hunting applications simply choose a distance beyond what you would shoot game at and verify to there. For a hunting rifle I would normally try do something like 300, 500 and 700 making sure I know my atmospheric conditions and the zero is true.

You need a perfect zero then just shoot and validate past the distance you will never shoot .
Once you have done it you dont have to do any validating back from that as your app has all the info you need to give you the right solution.
You will be just wasting ammo unless you just want to play and theres nothing wrong wit that either

Yup correct. I normally just do some shorter ones for a warm up to make sure I am shooting right. Oh and also because it’s fun! haha.
