Is there a table available that will approximate both the velocity and boolit drop?
I have an '03 Springfield that runs a muzzle velocity of 1690 with a Lyman 314299
sized at .312. The checked and lubed boolits weigh around 211 gr.
The rear peep sight is set a hair over the 600 yd. and will keep the shots in the center of an SR-1 100 yd military target. The sights get moved to a hair under the 900 yd. to keep the shots in the middle of an SR-5 target at 200 yds.
Is there a way to estimate the velocity at 1, 2, or 300 yds ?
I am limited to the 200 yards at the local range, but a friend of a friend has a 300+yd location. Are the boolits still sonic at 300 yards?
What about boolit drop? With the info given above, is there a way to estimate boolit drop at the above mentioned ranges? That is, how far above the line of sight are the boolits going? Thanks Folks !!
