Biting the Silver Bullet: Improving the Accuracy of Small Caliber Ammunition – Part 2 -
Close range shooting doesn’t require a deep understanding of external ballistics. However, when it comes to those longer shots, external factors such as altitude and barometric pressure need to be accounted for. Otherwise a miss is almost guaranteed. When a bullet leaves the barrel, it must push aside millions of air molecules on its way to the target. Each molecule the bullet hits robs it of a tiny fraction of energy, and the bullet slows.
