[ARCHIVED THREAD] - bullet drop

Posted: 4/8/2008 11:29:14 AM EDT

I know this question has been asked many times before but i can't seem
to find a diagram/chart showing the distance and bullet drop of the 5.56 round.
I've seen it here before and searched the archives but i'm not having any
luck. Also, does anyone know where I can find the same for the 308 win.
round? Thanks in advance for any help.

try federal ammunition website. may have to google it but they use to have a rather nice program on there about their specific ammo.

Try this http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/Hbase/grav.html#bul
You will need to know the speed of your bullet, but you can get that from your reloading manual. As for 5.56 or 7.62, gravity works the same on both. The amount of drop is all about time. I hope this helps.
