Home The Land The Quarry The Skills The Tools The LinksĪdvanced Ballistics Calculator - for those that want to play serious what-ifs. it depends on how it is sighted in and how close you can guess the range. 50 bmg sniper rifles, etc, they all drop fast. no rifle shoots very flat after a few hundred yards. our worst enemy, gravity, really takes hold and sucks them bullets into the dirt.

buti it has to be sighted in at that range. an '06 will hit at 1000 yards if you can make it. at 1000 yards the bullet is about going straight down. from 600 to 700, it's even more exagerated, etc. from 500 to 600, most rifles drop several feet, just in that span. just from 400 to 500, you're gonna drop over well 2 feet. sighting one in a few inches high at 100 will put it on at 200 or 250, but the same gravity pull arc takes over and it drops like crazy.

an '06 with a 165 gr bullet shooting 2800-2900 fps, which is about all you can realistically get from it, and sighted in at 100 yards, will drop from 50 to 70 inches at 500 yards, depending on the BC and some other factors. i would think an '06 at 1000 yards would maybe drop closer to 30 feet at 1000 yards. i would think that would be more than 30 inches, right there. or a 6 or 7 inch drop at 500 with a 250 zero. but i hafta disagree with 30' drop at 1000 yards. They shoot the '06 at camp perry at 1000 yards all the time.
