In ballistics, the ballistic coefficient (BC, C b) of a body is a measure of its ability to overcome air resistance in flight. [1] It is inversely proportional to the negative acceleration: a high number indicates a low negative acceleration—the drag on the body is small in proportion to its mass.
Internal ballistics (also interior ballistics), a subfield of ballistics, is the study of the propulsion of a projectile. In guns , internal ballistics covers the time from the propellant 's ignition until the projectile exits the gun barrel . [ 1 ]

Ballistics (gr. ba'llein, "throw") is the science that deals with the motion, behavior, and effects of projectiles, especially bullets, aerial bombs, rockets, or the like; the science or art of designing and hurling projectiles so as to achieve a desired performance.
Julian Sommerville Hatcher (June 26, 1888 – December 4, 1963) was a major general in the United States Army.As a firearms expert, he wrote technical books and articles relating to military firearms, ballistics, and autoloading weapons.
Example of a ballistic table for a given 7.62×51mm NATO load. Bullet drop and wind drift are shown both in mrad and MOA.. A ballistic table or ballistic chart, also known as the data of previous engagements (DOPE) chart, is a reference data chart used in long-range shooting to predict the trajectory of a projectile and compensate for physical effects of gravity and wind drift, in order to ...
