Ohhh my god... Praslick just told us a secret for wind calling in a way a dummy like me can understand clearly !!! Kool to hear Brian's way of cleaning barrels with abrasives. Superb interview !! Thank you Six5 guys.
Wow I just went back to school and learnt a lot about calling wind taught by Emil, thank you so much for giving us this info. Listening to Bryan and how he details everything about projectiles is a constant wonder to me and his in depth knowledge always amazes me. Thank you all so very much.
Just verified what Emil said via a ballistic calculator... The wind drift in mils for a 308 IS 0.2 mils, and the 1.2 mil initial hold for a 6mph hold is on point. Jesus Christ that experience just blew my mind.
Is Berger also a subsidiary of the Nammo group now. Nammo is one huge company, they own practically all of the big players within ammunition manufacturing.
This is why Kestrel and AB developed linked kestrel software were they can set up weather stations linked together and tied to tablets so they can get 100 or less meter wind measurements out to whatever distance they want, easier to fine tune the eye.
There's a point I could not understand, probably because I'm french... This is at 32:45 when Ed talks about the seathing depth of the bullet in the case. He mentionned that the bullet doesn't go below the neck/shoulder junction of the case, which I totally understand... After that, Brian's answer seems to be divided in 2 parts: One for the the new brass and a second one for the reloaders who reuse their brass I suppose... Can someone spread some light on that point please and reformulate Brian's answer? Thanks ahead!!!
He didn't really go into detail, but what I take from it is that he is saying that if you continually seat the bullets bearing surface below the neck/shoulder junction, it will over work the neck and lead to shorter case life due to overworking/hardening of the brass.
