Deker 3,478 Posted October 20, 2008 Report Share Posted October 20, 2008 I thought this may be useful for some, I know there are lots of tables about but this does seem to cover quite a few CF's and out to 500 yards as well , http://www.pacinfo.com/~dropinsator/chart1.htm Just click on the calibre you want in the blue section!!!

Tungsten 0 Posted November 14, 2008 Report Share Posted November 14, 2008 (edited) Yes I have been looking for such a chart. Asume this is in inches?? My Savage .223 is zeroed at 100yds using 69 grain federal btmatch. My Nikon scope is 1 click =1/4" at 100 yards, so at 300 yards I have to up my scope 49 clicks to be on the target? what is the sleeve section refering to?

The chart is all to do with some sort of Bullet Drop programme called a DROP-IN-SATOR , apparently different calibres need different "sleeves"..no idea what it's all about..just ignore it..the charts can be useful though!!

Very useful however there is an assumption there within the chart of the feet per second to give the quoted results. However all rifles will give a different reading feet per second wise, even with identical bullets. If you home load that could cause quite a discrepancy in minute of angle calculations dependant on the the amount of powder behind the bullet, not to mention ogive measurements. Quote Link to post

No table is correct, there are always stacks of variables..it is a guide, as are ALL tables!!! Even if you made up a table for your specific gun and round every shot would be different due to the wear of the barrel, the cleanliness of the whole tool, tolerance of any given load, weather, temperature, atmospheric pressure, etc, etc, etc.... It is a guide!!! Quote Link to post
