ballsitic calculator favor

[Oklahoma Rebel]

is there anyone here who actually has figured out these ballistic calculators? if so I would really appreciate it if you could run 2 loads...
7.62x39/17gr reloader 7/lee 312-185-1r sized 314 gc'd/20"barrel/SKS
7.62x39/21gr reloader 7/lee312-155-1r sized 314 gc'd/20" barrel/SKS
Thanks a lot, I am a work with my hands person, when it comes to computers or even my older cell phone, I am really.... technologically impaired? lol- Travis

sorry, I know its a lot to ask..

I'll SWAG it at 1500 for the 185 & 1800 for the 155.

[Oklahoma Rebel]

sounds like that's probably close, even though I know it expands, (the 185) at the speed its going, for some reason I wish it were going faster, even though I know a slow and heavy boolit is as good as a fast and light boolit. which would you use for hog?

so there isn't anyone who has a ballistics calculater downloaded? I have the lead alloy calculator saved, and it took forever before I realized that you didn't just use the bottom line, but the whole thing could be utilized. I'm not lazy, just not good with these programs, I have tried the ballistic one before, a few times. well thanks anyways, Travis

OK....i'll try to help, though i am no expert with these things. Your 17gr load came out at 1500fps and the 21gr load gave 1820fps according to QuickLoad. Of course these are no guarantees, but should be in the ballpark. Hope that helps.

There are 2 Bal. calc., external & internal (QL)

thanks a lot rupe, that sounds about right. I might have to try to look up quickload. have a good'un-Travis

I think I know the difference, like one is the drop and kinetic energy, the other is muzzle velocity, pressure and rpms? I'd love to hear you explain it better than I could,which would be plenty easy,lol, anytime I can learn I will!-Travis
