bullet drop formula

corbin9191 · Nov 10, 2008

I am wondering if anyone know what the bullet drop formula is. So I can calculate about how much My bullet will drop at a certain distance because I wont always have a computer sitting in front of me. :lol: . Thank you.

Print off your drop chart and tape it to your stock. Keep a spare in your bag or wallet and you are set to go.

the chart is pretty darn close to right on the money. i used it and it worked well

That chart was very close out to 500 yds at which point I was out of useable range. Any differences would be in BC calculations I believe.
It was within 1 click on my 264 @ 500 yds and within 2 for my 308.

Thank you POP! It really helps out alot. I am really amazed at what that rifle of mine will do and how much power it says it has out at 1000 yards (1497 ft/lbs) Thanks again for your help

Could anyone share the formula with me as well? I would greatly appreciate it.

The formula is a huge equation and that is very difficult to figure out as you got spin drift and a whole bunch of other variables. If you want too give me you data for the load that you are using and I can run it all through my Exbal program and I will PM everything to you. But I will need the sight in distance, temp, altitude, ect. just for the field condition when you sighted to rifle in. Also give me what bullet you are shooting and the velocity and what distances you want and I can get them done for you!
