What’s the ballistic velocity of a 260 Remington?
The ballistic performance based off two grains for velocity is 2,890 ft/s (120 gr) and 2,750 ft/s (140 gr). The Model 7 and M700 were the first two rifles to be chambered to allow the.260 Remington cartridge. The cartridge round first produced a low following amongst hunters and sport shooters who prefered other rounds such as the 6.5-08 Ackley.
How to calculate the trajectory of a bullet?
Use this ballistic calculator in order to calculate the flight path of a bullet given the shooting parameters that meet your conditions. This calculator will produce a ballistic trajectory chart that shows the bullet drop, bullet energy, windage, and velocity. It will a produce a line graph showing the bullet drop and flight path of the bullet.
