    Seeking 303 ballistic chart?

    Anybody know where I can see a ballistic/trajectory drop chart for 303? I did all the searches but came up a blank...a very little joke.

    Trajectory depends primarily on the bullet and velocity. Specify those items and anyone with even rudimentary ballistic software can produce a table including drop figures. If you have a computer capable of running a simple DOS application, download O.H.Skevik's "PCB" package from http://telecom.hartford.edu/swiss/pcb18-en.zip and you can do the job yourself with minimal fuss.

    An even simpler option is to try an online calculator like the one at Hornady's website. For the MK VII military load, use a B.C. about .425 and a muzzle velocity around 2440 fps - the results will be reasonably close to actual performance.

    Mine's built into the No.32 scopes. I could count clicks at some point, if you like. I know its on to about 600yd w/ 180gr PSP Sierras, and 650ish w/ South African ball. Beyond that, no trials yet.
