Im in the process of learning ballistics data and such and have been working with JBM calculations.
Would any of you mind taking a look at this and tell me if you see any glaring faults with my input data?
Going to the range soon and want to have a good starting point.

Ive used JMB recently. The input looks good.
thanks bigmil.
It is my first time messing around with it and im going on a hunting trip with my new build.
I want to at least make sure im in the ballpark with the figures before I send $'s down range.
Have a good one.
fx.
The data should be real close just make sure your record and track your real world data.
