1. Adjust the bullet weight and velocity sliders to approximate your desired load.
2. Choose the correct units for weight (grains or grams) and velocity (fps or m/s).
3. Monitor the displayed energy, selecting either ft-lb or joules.
4. Use the “Advanced Features” to see how distance, altitude, and temperature might affect energy over range.
You can also select common presets for popular calibers, helping you quickly fill in typical values. After you’re satisfied with the bullet parameters, use the “Add to Comparison” button to compare two different sets of data side by side.
