Ballistics For Dummies |
 | | Internal ballistics has to do with what happens inside the rifle from the moment of ignition to the bullet's exiting the muzzle. |
 | | Ballistic Coefficient is a different matter entirely; it's the measure of how "streamlined" a bullet is, i.e., its effectiveness at overcoming air resistance during flight. |
 | | Because with so many folks out there owning ballistics programs for their personal computers, all you need to do is plug in muzzle velocity, bullet weight and BC and you can plot trajectories for any desired zero range. |
