[QUOTE="jonthomps, post: 317412, member: 5177"] Ok, here are my findings and it's very interesting! Below is a list of the data set constants. I set the same parameters for all three ballistics programs. Manufacturer: Lapua Description: Scenar (CD) Caliber: 0.338 Weight: 300.0 gr Zero: 100 yd Muzzle Velocity: 2750.0 ft/s Sight Height: 2.25 in Line Of Sight Angle: 0.0 deg Cant Angle: 0.0 deg Wind Speed: 0.0 mph Target Speed: 0.0 mph Temperature: 59.0 °F Pressure: 29.92 in Hg Humidity: 45.0 % Altitude: 7600.0 ft Here are the results of the different software programs (at random distances) in no particular order of importance: Ballistic FTE: Drop (in.) Mils 800 yd -142.23 4.9 1300yd -473.89 10.1 1800yd -1096.11 16.9 KAC Bullet Flight: Drop (in.) Mils 800yd -144.9 5.0 1300yd -488.2 10.4 1800yd -1144.9 17.7 JBM Trajectory (Simplified) Drop (in.) Mils 800yd -144.2 5.0 1300yd -484.3 10.3 1800yd -1131.2 17.5 I hope this helps everyone make a much more informed decision! Jon [/QUOTE]
