    Custom Drag Model from Applied Ballistics

    I am having some good results with the custom drag model. Anyone else use these? I was shooting the 7 mag with the 195 EOL out to 800 yards a couple days ago. Ballistic AE had me at 16.75 moa, where as Applied Ballistics was 17 moa. I needed that extra .25 moa. Quick little video of the...

    Load Development 7mm Rem Mag Berger 195 Extreme Outer Limits (EOL)

    The 195 EOL for the 7mm looked to be a really impressive bullet, but it appeared to be for the bigger cartridges in the 7mm family. I looked at Berger's Load Data for the 7 Rem Mag and thought, if I could get 2 extra inches of barrel, I could push the bullet fast enough for the Rem Mag. I...
