by Bryan Litz, Unknown Author

This book provides highly accurate ballistic performance data for over 724 modern rifle bullets from .172 to .510 caliber. The Ballistic Coefficient (BC) data is based on live-fire testing methods which are accurate within +/- 1%. A common testing method is used to determine performance for all brands of bullets. In this way, shooters are provided with consistent and accurate performance data which can be used to compare and select the bullets which are best for their application. Combined with Applied Ballistics software products, this bullet performance data is also used to calculate highly accurate trajectories which put your shots on target at long range. Dimensioned drawings are provided for each bullet, as well as detailed stability data which is useful in determining suitable twist rates for bullets in various environments.
