    Yep 162 amax from a 7mm mag. There is quite a good Wikipedia page that describes and shows the different projectile shapes for G1 G7 etc. It's quite obvious which one to use when you read it.

    Recently I've seen special BC for airgun pellets GA and, 22 LR bullets in the Hawke Apps Chairgun and X-ACT. I guess- They are special purpose tables for Subsonic Shooting with Standard Shaped projectiles .
