Bwana-bebullet database on web?
Anyone know where I can find a good database on the internet?
Particularly one with bullet lengths would be awesome.

<Savage 99>Here is one but it's getting a bit dated. Perhaps someone will supply something better.
Some ballistic programs might have data such as coefficients. I don't think there is bullet length data available as it may not be a standard even with the manufacturer.

Bwana-beI appreciate it, guys.
Both very good links.
What I'm really looking for is bullet lengths, and any other physical measurements, e.g., ogee, meplats, boattails, etc.
Thanks again, though. Definitely worth a peek.

waitaminitThe Lapua manual is the only one I know of with (Lapua-)bullet length information.
"Quick Load" provides information, and "Load from a disk" as well. Unfortunately, LFAD's data are mostly wrong.

<Savage 99>I compared the Sierra .308 dia 150 and 165 gr SBT's to the Sierra chart and they are exactly the same. I tried scaling them and got the same measurement within .001"!
