500 fps?Look up the Sandy Hook Tests of 1879. They took 45/70-90-120's out to 3500 yds. But for the question they hit a 6' target at 2,500 yds. Bullet flight was abt 15 seconds. Used a 45-70 Allin-Springfield Model 1873 Army rifle.
I nailed that one.Hmm. I think I know where post # 26 is going to be at.
It takes about 3.6 seconds to make the 1000 yard flight beginning with MV of 1050 fps.
And you shoot long range where? Your credentials?That would be if it flew in a straight line and at a constant speed. Point A to B. This was nowhere close to a straight line or constant speed..
It's hard for me to get motivated to go to Raton. I love The Whittington Center and have spent many happy hours there. I bought a life membership (back when they really were life memberships with full access to everything, forever, for a one-time payment) and was considering retiring there. But the town is such a wasteland, devoid of any niceties other than Whittington, that I decided against relocation.The elevation at Raton does play a bit into things. Sadly haven't been able to shoot out there in nearly two years. Need to go soon...
