In 1884, the US Ordnance Department increased the bullet weight of the 45–70 to 45–70–500, or a 45 caliber bullet, 70 grains of black powder, and a 500 grain bullet. [3] The new 45-70-500 loading was recorded with a muzzle velocity of 1315.7 feet, and generated 1525 ft lbs of energy at 100 yds, and 562.3 ft lbs of energy at 1,000 yards ...
The 45 Raptor is a relatively flat shooting cartridge to 200 yards. From muzzle to 200 yards, there is no more than a 3" rise or drop with bullet weights of 185 grains to 300 grains. [ 2 ] This means a shooter can shoot into a 6" diameter circle at all distances to 200 yards with no hold over.
With a 200 yard zero, the ballistics chart looks like this: yds inches; 100 +11.5; 200 0; 300 -41.1; 400 -116.5; 500 -230.1; So a 200 yard ain't gonna cut it for a max point blank range on a deer, that 11.5" hump puts you right over the back of the deer. scot 15:51, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
Here is an example of a ballistic table for a .30 calibre Speer 169 grain (11 g) pointed boat tail match bullet, with a BC of 0.480. It assumes sights 1.5 inches (38 mm) above the bore line, and sights adjusted to result in point of aim and point of impact matching 200 yards (183 m) and 300 yards (274 m) respectively.
[1] [4] That is, if a given munitions design has a CEP of 100 m, when 100 munitions are targeted at the same point, an average of 50 will fall within a circle with a radius of 100 m about that point.
Musicians will be amp-ed that these phonies are off the streets. More than 3,000 fake Gibson guitars that could have been sold for a combined $18.7 million were seized by federal authorities after ...
