www.norma.ccThere is an advanced ballistics program where you can findout what your trajectory will look like in a real situation usingdifferent combinations of bullet weights and velocities. At theclick of a button, you can directly compare the trajectories ofthe various types of factory loaded ammunition bullets.S E E H O L D - O V E RI M M E D I AT E LYIn the program, you can easily enteryour own information on bullet weight,ballistic coefficient, muzzle velocityand the line of sight height. Then youcan adjust the zero range and immediately see the hold-over at each distancebefore the bullet hits dead on. Or how low it will hit at the chosen zero range.S I G H T- I N AT T H E R I G H T D I S TA N C EJudging distances is difficult, so you should sight-in your gun sothat it hits 1-2 inches high at 100 yards.Exactly how high the gun should hit depends on the caliber andbullet weight you use and from which direction you want the gunto hit the bullseye.If you want to aim dead center from all possible hunting distances,you cannot have too much hold-over if you are huntingsmaller game.Go to www.norma.cc and type in your figures in the ballisticsprogram. You can easily see the maximum acceptable shootingdistance at that hold-over. Sight-in at several different distancesso you know what will happen in a real situation!The example in the picture below is for a 150 grains FMJ ofcaliber .30-06.You can also see what velocity and energy the bullet has at distances up to600 yards. Wind drift is greater than you think even at moderate shootingdistances. You can see how the bullet is affected by different wind speedsand directions, which is valuable to know when you are going to do athorough sight-in of your gun.On our web pages, you’ll also find information about our products, loadingdata and ballistic coefficients for various bullets, how you can load your owncartridges and much more.100 yds 200 yds 250 yds 300 ydsSignt-indistance 250 ydsSignt-indistance 200 ydsSignt-indistance 100 ydsLine of sightTargetareaN O R M A P R E C I S I O N –17
