Know Your Ammo ! - The Ballistics & Technical Design of Ammunition: Contains 'best-Load' Technical Data for Over 200 of the Most Popular Calibers., Paperback/Paul F. Kisak

Descriere

- Written for The Military, Law Enforcement, Marksman, Sniper & Reloader - "Know Your Ammo" is designed to show the "best of the best" ballistics and loading data and compare the performance and design characteristics of over 200 popular rounds of ammunition based on maximum muzzle velocity. The manual gives an introduction to the following: 1.) The background, notes, assumptions and formulas used when calculating the ballistic characteristics of ammunition. 2.) Individual tables of ammunition characteristics for over 200 calibers or rounds of ammunition. 3.) A Chart of Gun Powder burn rates. 4.) An Overview of Explosives. 5.) Several Emergency and Survival Preparedness Guides 1.) The book is intended to empower you, the reader, with the years of experience of experts, so that you can see the single version of the ballistics data for each cartridge that provides the MAXIMUM KINETIC ENERGY of the bullet at the muzzle which also translates into the MAXIMUM KINETIC ENERGY DOWN RANGE and use this data as a reference guide. 2.) I know of no other book that teaches you how to calculate over 30 ballistics variables using the easy formulas in the manual. The formulas are in an easy to understand format (for the lay man) so that most anyone can use these formulas to calculate all the variables for your individual customized round or design and patent your own cartridge. 3.) This book also supplies the reader with the ability to simply turn to the page that has the cartridges that they are interested in and see the 'best of best' data for a .308 versus a 30-06 or a 7. 62 x 39 versus a .223 (for example) when loaded with their best performance options. 4.) I also know of no other book that lists a comprehensive comparison of the "Knock out Blow," "Optimum Game Weight for Kill" or " L - factor " for the over 200 cartridges in the book. These factors are THE ULTIMATE PURPOSE of any round. The book contains the simple 32 equations that every reloader and marksman should know. They
