long range shooting

[Mac7504]

do you guys have any formulas for long range shooting

Hey, if you have an android they have ballistics apps, if that's what your asking.


You have too many post to be trollin, but I'm starting to see what folks are talking about...Pssst, you starting to be the TOTT (Talk of the town)...lol.


Just go out and shot brotha, everything else will fall into place, just read up and do some HW...I new too but we have to take our own steps at some point...

Fire a bullet.

Use a stopwatch to measure free-fall time. Measure with a stopwatch the time in seconds it takes for the object to hit the ground. For example, say the time is 5 seconds.

Multiply the time elapsed by the acceleration due to gravity to arrive at the speed at which the object hits the ground in meters per second. If the object has an initial speed, add this speed to the final result. Completing the exercise, you have 5 seconds times 9.8 meters per second squared which means the object hits the ground at 49 meters per second.

Convert the speed the object hits the ground to miles per hour to get physical insight into the result by multiplying by 2.237, since 1 meter per second is equivalent to 2.237 miles per hour. Performing this step leads to 49 times 2.237 or 109.6 miles per hour.

So, if I'm driving away from you at 110 mph, I'll out run your bullets? What if the bullets are being fired from a vehicle which is moving 50mph behind me? Will the bullet speed increase?

I was gonna post a few websites for him to look at but after seeing what a spazz he was in the "sniper shots" thread and also due to the fact that he is banned by request, I got nothing for him
