In this episode, Samuel explains the basic factors that affect a bullet in flight, including gravity (or "drop"), velocity, aerodynamic drag, air density, and wind drift. He also covers BC (Ballistic Coefficient), sectional density, shooting up or down hill, true ballistic range, using ballistics calculators, and maximum point-blank range. If you want to become a better rifle shooter start getting familiar with ballistics and apply what you've learned at the range.
The Persistence Outdoors Podcast focuses on big-game hunting in North America. Whether you’re preparing for your first hunt, getting back into it, or just here to hang out, join us as we help more people get outside and into the hunting lifestyle.
