Ballistic Performance of Rifle Bullets 3rd Edition

Description

This book provides highly accurate ballistic performance data for over 724 modern rifle bullets from .172 to .510 caliber. The Ballistic Coefficient (BC) data is based on live-fire testing methods which are accurate within +/- 1%. A common testing method is used to determine performance for all brands of bullets. In this way, shooters are provided with consistent and accurate performance data which can be used to compare and select the bullets which are best for their application. Combined with Applied Ballistics software products, this bullet performance data is also used to calculate highly accurate trajectories which put your shots on target at long range. Dimensioned drawings are provided for each bullet, as well as detailed stability data which is useful in determining suitable twist rates for bullets in various environments. New for the Third Edition Performance data is reported for over 724 bullets from 0.172 to 0.510 caliber. Does not contain .22 LR information. There are 198 new bullets in this edition! ISBN: 978-0-9909206-0-1 Hardcover: 840 pages Dimensions: 10.25″ x 7.25″ x 3″ Weight: 5 lbs. Review: Awesome plethora of knowledge - Brian really knows his ****. He has the resources and time spent testing to prove what he preaches. Learned so much and am now making much more informed decisions when doing load work ups or when selecting bullets to try on the range for a particular rifle. Review: Must-have reference for reloaders! - Reloading is all about the data - especially for folks who demand precision. For some, it's a crap in/crap out endeavor that results in frustration and wasted time/money. Additionally, don't rely on bullet ballistic coefficient data provided by manufacturers. Litz put in the time using solid methodology to compile real-world data that will absolutely help you achieve performance-based goals. Add this and Applied Ballistic for Long Rangr Shooting to your reloading library.
