Default Balistic Simulation Help Please

Hi,

I know a few of you know how to use the software that tells you the bullet drop, energy etc... of various calibers. Could someone run a comparision of 4 of them for me in the more common grains or all equal grains if it makes sense to do it that way etc...

I need .308, .30-06, .300 Win Mag.

Thanks a bunch.

Tom

Email me at [email protected] and I will email you 3 excel sheets with it. You can manipulate as you choose. I jsut made up one for 150gr 308win, 165gr 30-06, and 180gr 300win mag with Sierra SBT bullets.

Here is a link to download Remington ballistic software. Pretty handy to have, and it's free.

Thanks a lot guys. I just wanted to get a feel for bullet drop on the 300 win mag relative to the two calibers that I am familiar with .308 and .30-06. I have been thinking about picking up a 300 for some time now.

Thanks
Tom

Winchester also has their own version of the Shoot! software on their site with their loads, I use as many software(s) as I can.

I've got Winchester's Shoot V3.0 "30 day free" software downloaded. It's pretty cool.

It showed me exactly how far my old Marlin 30-30 will go with a Winchester Silvertip 170gr round. Good God, at 250 yards, the classic 30-30 round drops like a rock! [:-] It's just as well.... I don't plan on shooting anything over 100 yards anyway.
