We have 5, 6, and 7 in the works. We actually have some good data on one particular cartridge + powder as to how many fps per shot it speeds up. Kind of an interesting set of data.

I would like to make sure to start off by saying this system is free. You do not have to pay to upgrade to this new system, and you do not have to pay to upgrade your apps or software to this new system. No other ballistics system on the market has a live backend to a ballistics laboratory for...

You assume this is the last post that I will make with the idea of helping to pass along knowledge to the shooter by saying "if you were doing a series of posts". Who is to say that I am not going to share more information down the line? This is actually one of many posts I have made on here...

The effects of Drag in flight, and Muzzle Velocity are easily two separate topics. however if you have a SD above 10fps and plan on being competitive at LR or ELR you might have some trouble. An SD of more than 10 will give you a larger than 1 MOA spread at 1000 yards.

It is true it can be said, that some of this may not be "necessary" for some shooters. Especially those who rarely shoot benchrest or past 100 yards. I don't really need a chronograph for my 30-30 with irons on it. 100 yard deer are a chip shot in that aspect. However, it is good to know. It is...

Hey everyone, I just wanted to give you all a couple things to think about. MV is often thought about as a simpler task than it really is. Because of this it is often managed or measured incorrectly. So here are a couple pointers to help you manage it better: 1) Chronographs do not measure...

Hey guys, I just wanted to share some free knowledge here. One is a video, the other is an article. Ballistic Calibration is often taken too lightly, done at home, or not done properly. This video will go in to the importance of your inputs when you do a ballistic calibration and doing it in the...

For our 2.05 mile event (this is specific to this setup) I believe it was: 1 MOA = 37.8" Horizontal Coriolis: 1 MOA (About 3 Feet) Which is larger than the size of the target. Vertical Coriolis: 1.5 MOA (About 5 feet) (Direction of Fire was 300 degrees at 37.8 degrees Latitude). Something...

Just a follow up to all of this. Mitch from the Applied Ballistics Shooting Team scored 3 out of 5 hits in competition today at the Worlds Longest Shot Challenge. They are not done yet either, tomorrow they move on to the long range targets...

We are working hard to make ELR a possibility. Researching equipment, techniques, ballistics etc. The ways of the past were that it could be months or years before this kind of research was made public and shared. We aim to take what used to be months or years, and share it in days and weeks...

To be exact it measured 17.5" by 22".

This is highly dependent on the location and atmospherics at the time. For this situation the bullet went transonic at around 3100 yards. It struck the target at about Mach 0.9 give or take a little.

We are using a Ringer. Our Teams Coach is Emil Praslick. Well known for his ability to call wind. He has 18 National and 2 World Titles as the Coach of AMU. He has also been the coach of many teams for the US Rifle Team. He was watching a couple of different zones to the target and taking an...

You are always welcome to join me here. I am only 20 minutes from 1500 yards. 4 hours to a couple miles. 7 1/2 hours to this range at Raton. Not a bad place to enjoy life ;)

With the King Of 2 Miles quickly approaching we held a highly productive team practice in Raton, NM. Targets were available out to 2.05 Miles (See the Video). All 5 shooters of the Applied Ballistics ELR Shooting Team scored hits on the 2 mile target. 3 of the 5 shooters scored hits in mock...

The 6.5x47L was designed from the ground up to optimize accuracy. The .260 Rem magazine feeding of high performance bullets issue was easily resolved by designing a bullet to fill the gap. The Berger 130 AR Hybrid. Does an absolute fantastic job of making the 260 Rem a 1 mile gun. Look at...

If you are wanting to get in to true ELR then here is my take on it. 300 Norma - 338 Edge - 375 Lethal Magnum. Depending on how far you want to take this. The 338 Edge with 300gr Berger's and the 375 Lethal Magnum with 400gr Cutting Edge Bullets were just verified at 2.05 miles this weekend. In...

I am pretty certain you were looking at our study. Was it by Applied Ballistics? We have a full time lab that tests bullets constantly, and Bryan released a study similar to this years ago.

What you are seeing is the Drag Curve for a specific bullet, not the standards. This bullet is a perfect example for one that shooters should be using a CDM for and not a BC for the most accurate prediction.
