CartHow to True Your Ballistic Coefficient
In this video, James Eagleman, from the Barbour Creek Long-Range Shooting School, dives into the precise art of how to true your ballistic coefficient. Viewers will learn the practical steps required to adjust ballistic coefficients using modern tools such as the Garmin Chronograph, TORIC 4-25×50 Rifle Scope and the Eagle Ballistics app.
The tutorial is designed to help shooters achieve accurate long-range shots by verifying their ballistic data with real-world shooting conditions, ensuring their rifles are perfectly tuned for distances beyond 600 yards.
Introduction to Ballistic Coefficient Truing
Time: 0:00-1:30
Learn what ballistic coefficient truing is, why it’s crucial for accurate long-range shooting, and the initial setup for a truing session using different lots of ammunition.
Setting Up Equipment and Initial Tests
Time: 1:31-3:00
James walks through the setup of the Garmin Chronograph, The TORIC 4-25×50 Rifle Scope and the usage of the Eagle Ballistics app to make initial calculations and adjustments before firing.
Live Fire Session
Time: 3:01-5:00
Watch as James performs live-fire tests, adjusts for wind using observed mirage effects, and makes elevation adjustments to align the point of impact with the target at 700 yards.
Final Adjustments and Results
Time: 5:01-6:30
Discover how to finalize the truing of your ballistic coefficients based on the shooting results, using the app to input observed data and obtain a corrected ballistic coefficient.
