"If you don't compensate for that angle, the bullet's going to impact higher than you expect." - Ryan Kleckner, National Shooting Sports Foundation.
"It's going to have a very flat trajectory while the velocity is high."
"And they came to the conclusion that this was due to the bullets having to spin up too quickly, causing excess friction in the barrel upon firing."
"22 creedmore carries 952 foot-pounds of energy at 500 yards... legitimate 500 yard deer cartridge."
"Can you think of any other projectile that's an inch and a half that three of them can hit a human body at shotgun force plus a center slug at 200 cranes?"
"The 5.7 by 28 millimeter: a really high velocity round and there are a lot of advantages."
"Velocity is what defeats cover and concealment."
"With those higher pressures we are... seeing long barrel bolt gun velocities."
"As long as that gun's on that line, it fits with what you're saying, your mathematics is saying."
"Shorter barrels in PDWs: losing velocity but still offering more power than nine millimeter."
"Bullet length is more important than bullet weight when it comes to stability."
"Trajectory is virtually the same as a hundred fifty grain .308 cartridge."
"1400 foot-pounds of energy is nothing to joke about guys that is a hard-hitting round."
"Every time a bullet is fired through a firearm, it creates almost a fingerprint, a distinctive fingerprint for that gun."
"You're going to need to actually measure the exact speed of your bullets."
"But bullets, when they fly through the air, they're supersonic, so it makes a crack."
"Shooting into water or clay directly doesn't always replicate normal expansion."
"We just kept digging in like we've done so many times this season, where we've had crashes or we've been spun out, we've had just adversity this season more than ever."
"The high BC of slugs gets you to your target much faster."
"Maintaining projectile velocity over... which bleeds off around 100 feet per second."
"He helped to develop the science that proved every weapon makes characteristic marks on a bullet."
"So in summary, my opinion aside from the point of impact shift at 100 yards, once you correct that, the actual drop of the bullet is essentially the exact same for a suppressed rifle versus an unsuppressed rifle."
"But for long range shooting, especially in regards to the terminal performance and the overall hit probability, the six fives and the six mills do very much trump the 30 cal in every way."
"Should we depend on the terminal ballistics of a cartridge and higher velocity?"
"You're going to get per powder charge higher chamber pressures out of a 5.56 brass than you will 2.223 because the thicker walls give you less case capacity."
"A small fast bullet traveling thirty-six hundred to four thousand feet per second is getting from point A to point B with a ton of speed and it's flat as a laser."
"In some cases, the bullet has enough power to penetrate the skull, but not enough to exit out the back."
"The 280 actually improved adds about 100 feet per second to the 280. Not a huge deal, but it's really nice for hand loaders."
"...because it helps us understand what's going on, we learn more about ballistics and we learn more about the game we hunt and how it reacts to being shot."
"So, you're probably going to be putting more energy on target downrange with the 30.6 and a heavier bullet than you would with the 35s, the 37s, even maybe the 338s."
"A non-expanded hollow point does way better than just a ball round."
"The 6.5 PRC has incredibly good ballistics with a laser-like trajectory."
"a 22 long rifle is going to drop and be affected by wind in a similar way at 100 yards that a 308 would be affected at 400 yards"
"The ballistics of that round is absolutely great."
"Ballistic coefficients are dependent upon velocity, yeah. So, within a velocity threshold of say 2,800 feet per second to 2,300 feet per second, that .326 might be true."
"If you want to get dispersion that replicates what we see in testing, we have to really narrow the initial pointing vector of the bullet as it starts out and limit the variability in the initial tilt of the bullet with respect to the bore axis."
"I'm here teaching you how to understand ballistics and trajectories and the very thing that Richard's discovered: you just use the same bullet with the same ballistic coefficient, and then you get a truer picture of what each of these cartridges can do."
"But all those things work against a shorter stodgy bullet that's why everyone's crazy about these high bc bullets."
"Mass, velocity, all that stuff makes the bullet expand."
"What are we up against? What happens from the moment you pull the trigger until that bullet uncorks from the barrel?"
"I think one of the fields of ballistics that doesn't get talked about much is internal ballistics."
"Stippling is a powder burn pattern left on an individual due to a close range shot."
"...the high sectional density bullets used by the 6.5 Creedmoor also assist with penetration."
"Accuracy falls apart at some point downrange."
"I've done a lot of research on that bullet if you don't know what a six Arc is look into it it is six small little bullet it basically does have the ballistics of a 308 it is crazy."
"It's tough to pick a winner when it comes to accuracy of the .270 versus the .30-06."
"Yaw every pose is the small lateral angle that the bullet makes in relation to the bore line that steers the bullet off its course."
"The seven millimeter odd eight is the ballistic twin of the 126 year old 7x57 mauser."
"You think about barrel length, that's bullet velocity and bullet velocity has a direct impact on how that bullet flies downrange."
"It was a unique bullet, a 38 special wad cutter."
"The 6.8 Western has a definite advantage in sectional density over the most common and heaviest 6.5 millimeter and even most of the 7 millimeter bullets."
"The 6.8 Western has a definite ballistic advantage over the old .270 Winchester in terms of external ballistics."
"It's great because it teaches you so much about well, I divide it up into five ballistics terminal ballistics."
"You are going to really be educated and surprised and I think delighted to be able to make your own ballistics calculations."
"The higher that BC number, the better that bullet will resist air drag, which means it's going to retain more velocity and more energy when it gets downrange."
"From 100-yard zero, you're talking about 2 M.O.A. of elevation to 600, so it's an extraordinarily flat-shooting cartridge that delivers a ton of energy."
"I think that yellow Mist yeah just farting around with stuff like that it's going to change the ballistics a little bit it's the whole reason we had to stop touring."
"We need to continue our study of all things ballistics."
"Comparing the .308 and .30-06, the difference in velocity comes along with roughly a 10 grain difference in powder."
"Sectional density doesn't necessarily equate to stopping power; bullet shape and composition play a significant role."
"A higher ballistic coefficient means a flatter trajectory, less susceptibility to wind drift, and faster target acquisition."
"Comparing bullets solely based on ballistic coefficient can be misleading; muzzle velocity and other factors must also be considered."
"The power on the 22 caliber is going to give you 39 foot pounds of energy or 53 joules."
"The seven millimeter on a shoots flatter than the 308, has less recoil, and I have a feeling it's here to stay."
"The bullet comes out of the muzzle climbs to meet line of sight then it goes above line of sight for some period of time before it falls back down."
"300 Norma, very flat shooting, very hard hitting."
"Pros of the 556: lighter recoil and the ability to make rapid follow-up shots."
"Pros of the 308: terminal performance is solid, can't argue with it. It's very effective with a ton of energy on target."
"With the charge master light, the SD was 5.08, ES 16, and the average speed or velocity 2770."
"Different weight projectiles means different impact points on the target, especially at long distance."
"The process I usually go through is I do an optimal charge weight test on it whether you're using the Saturday method or a modified version of that or doing a la old-school ladder test um you're basically looking for velocity and pressure nodes."
"Velocity matters a great deal with black powder guns."
"Applied Ballistics is what it's running and so I can literally take this range across this Canyon range down at an angle and it's going to give me the exact dope or come up that I need."
"As the bullet came down to earth, the distance it covered within the height of a soldier was called the dangerous space."
"Seeing the trajectory with the light behind, actually seeing the bullet arc down, was just so cool."
"We've also got a really great anatomically correct ballistics gel torso here."
"With the Loren, the bullet is shooting fast enough and flat enough that it is likely that he is still going to hit the enemy."
"Honestly among the best, perhaps even the best ballistics of any rifle musket."
"If you're getting into long-range shooting and you're looking for a reliable ballistics application to support your long-range shooting, stay with me."
"Ten millimeter has some serious punch; it's good to 100 yards, you can hunt with ten millimeter and take an ethical kill."
"As a forensic scientist, primarily I work in a section that involves the examination and analysis of firearms and firearm-related evidence."
"The explosion ignites the gunpowder, and the pressure pushes the bullet out the barrel."
"Lee understood the powerful weapons of a battleship not as specialized naval instruments but as extensions of the universal laws of ballistics."
"The quest to discover the origins of ballistic science begins in the east, in the ancient superpower of China."
"The smoke is essentially exactly that, the appearance of a cloud around the bullet hole."
"Firearms identification is a discipline in forensic science where our main objective is to examine fired ammunition components."
"Rifling in barrels gives a bullet its rotary twist and spin so that it can travel to a target or its destination."
"The rifling spinning the bullet making it go out does allow it to travel in a straight line."
"A shot shell can contain multiple projectiles or a single projectile."
"Ballistic coefficient is like a number or quantity given to any projectile that basically states how good it is at maintaining its velocity, maintaining its energy, how little resistance it has through the air, cutting through the air."
"The bullet must have been relevant either to the heart or to the gun to have traveled with a velocity great enough to penetrate."
"In a solid copper, velocity is king."
"We have a much more cohesive projectile left here."
"It's not that they're reversing their decision from the 1980s, it's they're acknowledging that the bullet technology of the era now allows the nine-millimeter to meet the specifications that previously only the 40 Cal was able to meet."
"With a quality load and a 1-7 or 1-8 twist, you're going to get superior velocity."
"Optimal charge weight has the projectile exiting the barrel at the point that is optimal time and generates the smallest group."
"The higher the ballistic coefficient, the easier that thing actually shoots through the air and maintains energy."
"Our target for feet per second is 2,500 feet per second."
"It stopped them, holy crap it actually stops some rifle rounds."
"It's built around a 5.7 caliber round, so it's actually smaller than a nine-millimeter round, travels really fast, it's about like half the weight, 30 percent less recoil."
"The slower burn rate powder builds pressure slower, so consequently, we can up our charges, increase our velocities, and still have acceptable pressure limits."
"Your true range on angled shots is always going to be longer than your actual horizontal range."
"The actual horizontal range was decreased; that's the range that gravity is going to have the effect over."
"The true range is the actual amount of distance that the bullet has to travel to make it to the target."
"Both ranges are actually important."
"It's actually quite simple to be able to calculate your actual horizontal range."
"We will show you how to factor in humidity for extreme range shots if that's something you do want to adjust for."
"The second the bullet exits the muzzle, the seal is broke and these highly pressurized gases supersonically escape past the bullet in all directions."
"Once you have all your ballistic data formulated and composed and laid out logically in a set of ballistic tables, it's very quick and easy to come up with the firing solution for these long-range shots."
"There's nothing really theoretical about ballistics; it's all very precise science."
"JBM Ballistics is a free online ballistic source; it's very precise and does a really good job."
"It's very important to set up the ballistics as carefully as possible because good data in will give good results back out."
