I came upon this wondering about the drop of my 50 caliber patched ball at 1850fps muzzle velocity.

You will have to copy and paste to this web page. The zip file is below. Extract files to get the calculator. I apologize to those who have seen this, I had not.

The only tables I use are the ones I make using my chronograph. Other than that the various tables often give you a reasonable "ball park" range of speeds.

Our club shoots muzzle loading silhouette. I was trying to figure the holdover for the Ram at 100 yds. Rifle is sighted to 50yds. Hold over approx 6 inches at 100yds. Thanks
