[QUOTE="Pro2A, post: 1464115, member: 17889"] When going transonic....about 1325fps down, you will benefit from using Bryan Litz's Applied Ballistics Custom Drag Curves. (G7 BC curves are fine above 1325fps.....if they are accurate. Caution: Many manufacturer BCs are optimistic as they use their best BC for only one velocity point. BC varies over the entire velocity range. Hence, CDCs are the best.) These can be accessed in AB Ballistic solver found in Kestrel 5700 Elite Ballistic; Sig Kilo2400ABS, or one of several AB stand alone solvers (from $29.99 Google Play Store app; $125 AB mobile app; SB Point Mass Solver included with Applied Ballistic for Long Range Shooting book about $50; or AB Solver with complete program suite including WEZ (Weapon Employment Zone analysis about $200, etc.) These also allow specific curve truing at extended range for your specific system and DOPE.
