Great video! One thing which is majorly wrong. At time 8:36, you enter 15.0 for "Velocity Variation". Your entry will change your MV 15 fps with every 1 deg F up or down. Example, reduce your shooting temperature 10 deg F from your Zero temperature and your MV will output 150 fps slower. This number, for factory ammo needs to be determined by shooting a sufficient size string at both your zero temp and then later at a higher or lower temp. For reloaders you can enter a fairly close Vel Variation based upon the powder you use. Example. Varget = .19 fps/1 deg. A great temp insensitive powder. A great powder which IS temp sensitive is Rel 15 = 1.52 fps/deg. These "estimations" can be found by Googling "powder temperature sensitivity chart". Other than this, great video!

Great informative video on trueing BC based solvers. Have you tried using any of the solvers that use the specific bullet your using and doppler radar derived drag curves like Hornady 4Dof or Applied Ballistics PDM's and CDM's? If you haven't I think you'd like what you find. A great explanation of what Hornady 4Dof is and how profiles are built can be found both on youtube and their podcast on pobbean and Spotify is episode #49 "why use 4Dof" The accuracy of the above two solvers compared to solvers that use a BC value from a G1 or G7 standard model is quite an amazing leap forward. I've been using them for the past 6-7 years in PRS competition and we wouldn't be scoring where we do today if we didn't have 4Dof and AB.

Presented very well and dig the target footage. Few things I would like to share as a fellow long range shooter. Scope height over bore plays little effect to calculated adjustments. At best, it will interpulate about a tenth. MDT did a video on this also. The first step one must do before relying on ballistic data is to do a tall target test up to your longest target engagement. Ensure your at 100m to see if any scope tracking error is shown. The EP5 is a great scope, but I personally have found a few tenths error past 12 mil on multiple scopes. Kestrel has this compensation as Zero offset. Adjusting BC as shown here will true up the distance your shooting at, however, this does not compensate correctly for your particular rifles and load trajectory. What will happen is distances half the range and closer will have shots impact above the target. It is essential to test at all effective distances. Ballistic solvers like the one shown here will get you close but unfortunately lack the ability to adjust to your rifle and load trajectory. It will get you close, but ultimately you will have to build a D.O.P.E chart with matching DA's Ultimately, this is where a Kestrel is an essential tool with its ability to Cal (MV) at the distance your rifle and load hits transonic. (Must be within 10% of distance). The Kestrel will replot the trajectory to better match your rifle and load. BC adjustments should only be done when you can interpulate exact velocities at targets with muzzle velocity

Great point and I’m annoyed with myself that I didn’t think to mention this in the video. While the wind doesn’t change the theory or the process, like you say it could slightly change down range performance so always best to do something like this in as little wind as possible

Great tutorial! If you're going to shoot at distance, you absolutely need a chronograph. You can't just go by the velocity number on the box as that will not be the actual number from your rifle. The AMU also uses 10 rounds or more when collecting velocity data. I like to use a 10 round sample. I use a Labradar and Applied Ballistics. The calculators are very much garbage in - garbage out, so make sure your inputs are accurate. It will save you ammunition and time.

I use two chronographs: a barrel mounted MagnetoSpeed and a tripod mounted light based or radar based chrono placed at a laser range finder verified distance. Record all weather conditions. Record near and far velocities. Use JBM ballistic's calculator and derive a BC. I've verified the BC of Hornady's 75gr ELD-M with this method. G1 .460 vs Hornady's advertised G1.467, which is within statistical variation of one gun to the next.

The bc provided by the bullet manufacturer is very close and directionally correct but there are many factors that influence the exact bc for your specific setup. You’ll have decent results running the bc provided by the bullet manufacturer but if you really want to improve your performance you need to true as shown in this video. Can’t wait to hear about your results when you get your rig trued up.

If I may, a few things I've done to my "Entry Level" AR. 1) Tighten up the interface between the lower and upper receivers. I used small pieces of crating tape. 2) install a free float hand guard. This sounds more simple than it is. I did use a mandrel to true the front face of the upper receiver where the barrel extension makes contact. For removal and installation of the barrel I also bought the Giessle reaction rod. The bad news. After all of this the rifle still only shoots 1.5" groups at 100yrds. I did say it's an entry level rifle. I did manage to improve the groups by 0.5". On another AR rifle with a better quality barrel I'm getting 1" groups. This rifle also has a muzzle break, the entry level rifle doesn't. Can it be done? Yes. Is it easy? Honestly that depends on your definition of what is easy and difficult. Wishing you the best of luck in your endeavors.
