Round Ball Ballistic Calculator
« on: August 26, 2022, 11:28:50 PM »
Here something that might come in handy for some folks who are looking to stretch there "Patched Ball" shooting out to - or past 100 yards, (or even under 100 yards) as far as that goes... It can get you in the ballpark without wasting a lot of powder and lead...

I'm getting ready to do some 150 yard "Bench Rest" shooting with .45 and .50 caliber Rifle(s), and thought I'd share this link in case some of you have an interest in this kind of stuff. Click the link below;
