I cant explain some things, poor at the math but I see things that baffle me with revolvers.
I shoot a 330 gr .44 WLN at near 1350 fps, it drops 35" at 200 yards.
I shoot a 420 gr WFN at the same velocity from my .475 and it drops 18" to 20" or so.
You would think the larger diameter boolit with a bigger meplat would drop more but it is not the case.
Both are sighted at 75 yards at the start.
I can only say it is the weight difference. The BC of the WFN must be awful but it sure gets there so it must retain velocity better. I shot the 420 gr, WFN from the .475 and kept them on a 6" swinger at 400 yards. The holdover is not near as much as the 320 gr 45-70 boolt from my BFR at 1630 fps yet the 45-70 only drops 16" at 200, it does not retain it to 400 yards or 500 meters, (547 yards.)
When I shot long range rifle I never went by figures in books, I actually shot the distances. Nothing ever matched. I do the same with revolvers, I actually shoot and measure.
Calculations and programs are like cell phones to me, never to be understood!
