Re: M-16 Accuracy
Can you put a source on that? From everything i've ever read about ballistics I thought that bullets climb after they leave the barrel and fall back to the point of aim at their zero'd range.

Re: M-16 Accuracy
When i was going thro both Basic Training and Inital Training we were tought that it falls then rises then falls again, if anyone can get there hands onto a f88 styer training pam you will see its in there

HangMan: BF2 Editor, it has very strict limitations memory wise, and crashes all the time. Its like a girl. Treat it with respect and take it slow and you'll get places. Rush and get ahead of yourself and it will turn around and punch you in the mouth |

Re: M-16 Accuracy
how is that even possible?
heres two more examples, low velocity rounds show it more . plus i couldnt find a 5.56 one. purely scientifically speaking (with my high school level education) i can't see how its possible for it to fall , rise then fall again. mainly the first part of it falling then rising. |

Re: M-16 Accuracy
I think maybe he means that for a short period the bullet is below the sight (while it rises) because the barrel is below, then it rises above it, then comes down.
For example your graph. 0-60 yards its below the sight line, 60 - 100 its above and 100 + its below again. |

I thought that might've been what he meant. It's the only really rational compromise unless Australian bullets have some funky aerodynamics. | |
