Ridge here is something else to chew on while you are trying to wrap your mind around the last post.
The formula for calculating the ballistic coefficient for a bullet is as follows:
where:
[ul][*]
BC = ballistic coefficient[*]
SD =
sectional density, SD = mass of bullet in
pounds or
kilograms divided by its caliber squared in inches or meters; units are lb/in2 or kg/m2.[*]
i = form factor,
i = drag coefficient of the bullet/drag coefficient of G1 model bullet (G1 drag coefficient = 0.5190793992194678)[*]
M = Mass of object, lb or kg[*]
d = diameter of the object, in or m [/ul]
You will notice that mass/Sectional Density are part of the Ballistic Coefficient calculation. You are calling my post below "BS".
Given equal drag the heavy bullet will tend to maintain its speed because it takes more drag to slow more mass. Like throwing a whiffle ball vs a baseball at the same speed.
Yet according to those confusing numbers above it would seem I am dead right and you are dead wrong would it not?
