Heavy vs. Light Bullets in the Wind: 6.5 Creedmoor at 1,000

Key points: Heavy vs Light Bullets

• Every string logged with Kestrel wind data and shot-marker impacts
• Solver predictions vs. actual drift charted round by round
• The heavies bucked wind as advertised — at a real velocity cost
• Light bullets stayed supersonic with margin but paid in drift
• How to actually choose: match your load to your wind, not the forum

About this Ballistics Focu video

Ballistic-coefficient tables promise a lot; a switchy 12-mph crosswind at 1,000 yards collects the debt. Longline Ballistics shoots 130s against 147s all afternoon under Kestrel-logged conditions, plotting actual wind drift against solver predictions. A patient, data-heavy watch for anyone who shoots past 600 — and a quiet case study in why 'buy the heavy match load' isn't the whole answer.
