Knowing Which Ballistic Group To Select, Popular Caliber & Load Combinations

Page 17 highlights

KNOWING WHICH BALLISTIC GROUP TO SELECT Bushnell engineers have worked with Sierra® Bullets' ballistic programs and grouped many of the most popular calibers and loads into eight ballistic groups (A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H). Once you know what caliber and load you are shooting simply look through the chart to determine which one of the eight ballistic groups match with your particular load and caliber. For Muzzleloaders, we have worked with PowerBelt Bullets to incorporate ballistic data into two ballistic groups (I and J).
