Default RE: 30.06 Ballistics Question

ORIGINAL: doubleA

Ifor one only use the "ballistic charts" as a general guide. There are just to many variables in the equation. You can have all the charts and web chair quarterbacks say this and that but untilYOU ACTUALLY GO OUT AND SHOOT THE PARTICULAR LOAD IN YOUR GUN it's all guess work.

Case in point......... you said the rifle is shooting right on at 100 yards but an inch or two at 40-50 yards. Well it didnt take long for folks to chime in and say that it's not supposed to be> I have no doubt you are being honest so whjat gives? Real world experince or something a chart says.

I am in no way trying to demean anyone here it's just that over many years of shooting my experinces tell me to shoot loads at various distances to tell what really happens, besides it's great practice to do so. Not saying that anyone here would do it but there are some that have never shot over 100 yds and then have no problem when hunting taking shots they shouldnt have.

Well, sorry for my rambling on.....
Agreed

Excellent rambling Double A!
