Can someone run a ballistic test for me?
Can some one with a ballistic program run the following for me?

.243 bullet 95 gr BC of .365 at 2900 fps muz

Sighted in 1" high at 100 yards. What will it be doing at 200, 300 and 400 yards?

Thanks

Do a search on Google for "realguns.com" and there is a good website with lots of calculators etc for free. The guy also writes some pretty neat articles there. D Kraky

I run it on Load From a disk and got almost the same information. Here is a cite that you can download a free program. Works pretty good:

Terry,

I have sent you a ballistics program that I wrote a few years ago based on an article in the American Rifleman. It should help you out.
