This is a factual comment😂😂
Bullet will not speed up after it leaves the barrel. Bullets with a higher ballistic coefficient will not slow down as quickly which is why match ammo may be faster then non match ammo, even though they started off slower, at long distances.
You are right Drag is proportional with speed squared, so a slower bullet will have much less drag and travel a longer distance
You said what I thought, cause I was wondering what sorcery happened in 2020 to make rounds speed up in flight
The bullet is travelling slower while in the barrel than when it leaves the muzzle , due to friction . Therefore , the bullet increases in velocity upon exit . But once it leaves the muzzle , drag begins to slow the bullet from the nanosecond it leaves the muzzle . The only projectile I've ever heard of that increases in velocity upon exiting the muzzle is the failed Gyrojet cartrige .

Not so much as not knowing what they are talking about but more like just giving general information and glossing over key points on the topic.
lol
Wonder where he got his information. He gave more misinformation than accurate.
The .224 Valerie is a Fed. Caliber by the way and was designed for long range target shooting 1000 + yds, but would be an excellent caliber for small to med size varmints.
Two of the most defining factors in calculating ballistic coefficient within specified calibers is sectional density and bullet ogive or curvature shape.
Please see other means on all the info in this video as most is incorrect.
While there's many great and accurate information channels on this and other shooting and ballistic properties on You Tube I recommend checking Gun blue 490 channel. He has informative videos covering all aspects of shooting and has forgot more on this than most know.
"The match grade rounds speed up" no, that's incorrect, they merely retain kintetic energy at distance moreso than a lighter bullet, thus maintaining supersonic velocities for a longer period of time. Also, match grade ammo IS mass produced, it just has stricter quality assurance. There are a lot of things wrong in this video.
Technically a round will slightly speed up after leaving the barrel until the atmospheric pressure behind the round equalises with the surrounding atmosphere. In practise, this happens within milliseconds of leaving the barrel.
That said, I haven't watched the video yet to see just inaccurate it is.
The dudes with the snipers’ guns have a ton of idle sway, they should just hold down the left stick and to hold their breath
Holding your breath can decrease accuracy. It's best to shoot at your natural respiratory pause at the end of your exhale. The pause is usually 2-3 seconds long and can be extended but must not exceed 8-10 seconds.
t bagging also helps reduce shot drag and makes you a harder target to hit
this is more accurate than the video

And humidity
Small detail to mention because the distance that a shot has to be taken for it to take effect. What I'm talking about is the coriolis effect which in layman's term means if the shot is far enough you will need to start to account for the rotation of the earth as a factor in the accuracy of your shot. This distance is at about the half a mile(.8 kilometers/1000 yards) to start taking effect.
The coriolis effect takes effect immediately after being fired, but is negligible at close range, or when firing to the East or West. It has the most significant effect when fired towards the Equator along a North/South vector.

The most important thing I have found in making accurate ammunition is ensuring every bullet is as close to the same as possible! Match grade projectiles should the exact same weight and dimensions, the powder load should be the same as well. Exactly the same kind of powder and the same amount of it. Even the brass casing holding everything together has to be as close to the same. Making everything is the exact same everytime will ensure your bullets behave the same way in flight every time so you can accurately calculate windage, drop, humidity and even the rotation of the earth depending on the range you are shooting at.
I ve heard of accurate ammo , inherently accurate calibers and I won't argue that. I agree, keeping everything consistent to minimize variations in mv and external ballistics is vital but is necessary to conform loads to the rifle or more correctly the chamber, throat and barrel being fired from. I mostly
think of ammunition as precise and consistent and the rifle accurate. It helps to rest, aim and shoot correctly and often.
Knowing what it takes is easy. Combining all three as one is how you get the following.
There's a video posted by Erik Cortina , pro shooter showing a 5 shoot 1.3 inch group at 1000 yds. That is an amazingly small group but the first 4 were .3 inch.
He pulled if that's what ya wanna call it the 5 th 1 inch. Lol. Even more incredible is how consistent his velocities are and standard deviation he has attained.
You bet I m jealous and a student.
This is one of those videos where you will be better informed if you DON'T watch it.....
Lol, match grade ammo doesn't speed up after it leaves the barrel. Match grade ammo just had better ballistic coefficients so will perform differently.
Yup, not as easy as Hollywood would have you believe, reality is its weaponized mathematics and a LOT of skill.
Rule #1 Never hard scope only quick scope
I could not bear to watch any more when I heard "The primer is the main ignition method in the BULLET...." Please stop calling cartridges "bullets", like calling civilian semi-automatic firearms "assault weapons".
Match ammo DOES NOT gain speed after leaving the muzzle, it simply doesn't lose velocity as fast due to it's increased mass and boattail design. A military hollow point is not designed to expand. The hollow point is a byproduct of the manufacturing process. Having the bullet weight to the rear DOES NOT make less likely to tumble. It actually increases the likelihood.
Don't know who your advisor was on this video was, but they or you apparently don't have a clue about exterior ballistic performance.

Precision over long distances has to the the Coriolis effect - aka the earths rotation around it's own axis - into account.
Small things tend to mater when precision maters.
Likely their rifles would have been compensated for it upon arrival in the area. After transport rifles r generally sighted in because of transport jostling usually but it would also get this effect accounted for. Also at 1k yards it doesnt really matter 3 inches on a human sized target. Most shooters dont really consider for this effect or have a cheat sheet they used for the area when the arrived likely before they arrived at combat zone.
Yep! They missed that one so I came down if someone else came up with it.
@@kylealexander7024 we not talking about zeroing a scope m8
@@TinyBearTim talking about hitting a target. Which sighting ur rifle once u arrive would account for this effect. Especially since they would be trying to minimalize all variables they would also likely know the direction they were likely to be shooting.
@@kylealexander7024 I am 90% sure the effect works differently depending on what cardinal direction you fire towards.
This is not something you can "compensate" for, as the effect is not static.
No you don’t need a Doctor, your mans already has X’s on his eyes 🙁🙁
Drift and drop are the effects. The adjustments to compensate them are windage and elevation.
I have many times found an informational channel that I liked, they cover things I don't know much about and I like to learn. Then they cover something I know quite a lot about and place everything I have ever heard from them into question. As a veteran Infantryman I learned a bit about some weapon systems. I shot more in my youth than in the military and now in my later years I know far more about these weapon systems. My main hobby is ammunition development, I make, shoot, test then change variables in my loadings. This is what I learn about and do regularly. I say this to assure you that I am certain that you got virtually everything in this video wrong. Irresponsibly, recklessly wrong. Even basic physics that require zero knowledge of fire arms are laughably wrong. Then again you have gotten almost all gun topics so wrong that now I watch your show occasionally for a good laugh and see no further value in it.
Who?

@@aster4405 Yeah you got a point.
The amount of misinformation in this video is astonishing.
As a former employee of a munitions factory, I can confirm that
Please elaborate
The expansion of the bullet only allows the projectile to dump more of it's energy more quickly. The act of expansion itself isn't more devastating than the power of the round, it just makes the power of the round be delivered more efficiently.
What do snipers feel ?
The recoil.
Recoil.
The quiet kid: hmmm interesting.....
Snipers also take the earth's rotation into account on longer shots.
Normal Americans be like "This video is highly inaccurate"
It is
It's like they just read off Wikipedia without actually understanding anything.
I like how they completely omit one of the most important aspects of bullet weight and propellant loading, matching the rifles barrel harmonics.
When you fire a rifle the shock of firing causes the barrel to 'walk' in its bedding(barrel supports). By keeping meticulous record of loads, weights, environmentals, and accuracy (where you aim vs where the round lands), you can build up a statistical pattern of where the next bullet will land based on the current state of the weapon. This is how they can thread rounds through the same hole at 1200yds.
Everything great on this video like always, but a small tip. You cannot say that the bullets fall faster because of their weight, Gravity pull down all objects at the same speed no matter their weight or size. What is really true is that a bullet could fall later or earlier depending on his aerodynamics 😊
Sort of like the AR video it looks like you guys did some googling, but this really needs a bit more research Especially with the advent of 408, 6.5, and 338 a lot of what your saying isn't exactly accurate. You're about 75% the way there.
I agree. There was some stuff that they got. But you could tell actual experience and first person knowledge was lacking still. Seems like they checked some reloading forums and stuff. Hahaha.
They were maybe 75% of the way there on technical knowledge, but on practical knowledge it was pretty bad.

A lot of problems with this. I'll just choose one.
Open tip match bullets and hollow point bullets are different things. Snipers (and precisions shooters in general) tend to use the former, not the latter.
Both have an open tip. Hollow points have that open tip as a part of their design to expand on impact. The video was right about that. However....precision shooters rarely ever use hollow points. The video is confusing that with them using open tip match bullets.
Open tip match bullets have an open tip simply as the result of a more consistent precision jacketing process that goes from back to front (which is why the open tip happens, that's where the jacket is coming together). The advantage is the more precision jacketing process making a more uniform bullet, not the open tip itself. And that open tip is NOT designed for expansion upon impact. In fact most precision open tip bullets are specifically sold with a warning that they do not expand, in case hunters (which are often required to use expanding ammo) buy them on accident thinking they're expanding hollow point bullets.
When I was in the ROTC (Navy) rifle team we used air rifles that required match-grade pellets (or BB's) in order to maintain accurate groupings.
We also used match grade
.22 rounds that were custom polished/balanced in a local machine shop to within 0.0003 grams.
Powder was matched the same way down to a single grain.
"match grade" in this video is a bit misleading. All match grade means is they are as consistent as physically possible in all aspects as a manufacturer can possibly make at a time. That's all it is, the rest is tailoring a round to a specific firearm. Also, there are no service rifle rounds that aren't "boat tailed" period. it's been a thing since just after WW2
I need to meet the researchers here and have a little chat🤣
Snipers also have to worry about the Coriolis effect, air pressure changes at varying distances along the flight path, humidity..... they're insane. Real world snipers are ridiculously good.

Shhhh Infographics, the best friend Russian engineers ever had...
Having reloaded for almost 40-years, and working up a number of 'custom loads', I can easily say that this video is generally 'pre-school' information, and there are whole LIBRARIES of research information on the 'real facts', much of which contradicts the others...but there are 'basics', most of which aren't covered here...such as the requirement for hyper-velocity (over 4,000-fps), FMJ Boattails (never have seen a 2,000 m or longer range 'hollow point'), and projectile weights OVER 162-grains, for 'entry level' 1,000 m + shots. Other key components are down-angle shot calculations, Coriolis Effect, varying effects of wind vs range, etc. (LOT of math in making ultra-distance shots). While you may get 'lucky' with an 800-m engagement using a 7.62 x 51 round...you are almost 'out of range' by 900-1000-m with that caliber. Thus, enters the 'big rounds' (.50-BMG, .338 Lapua, etc.)...high accuracy at long range equals BIG DOLLARS, too! From 'custom barrels' to slugging the barrel for size, custom forming bullets to meet your barrel's true dimensions, etc.
Again, this is a VERY 'intro level' video...and there are a LOT of 'general errors' in it, to start with.
I've seen 175gr boat tail match ammo for 7.62 NATO, and even heavier 300 Win mag.
aren't hollow points banned by the geneva convention
Yes, they are. Because they cause too much unjust suffering
No, bullets specifically designed to expand are banned by the Hague Convention. Bullets, like the Sierra Match Kings, are designed and marketed to be precision projectiles, and the hollow point increases their bc. The fact that the smk’s violently expand on impact is a “happy accident”.

All rounds (bullets) regardless of weight fall to the ground at the same rate when fired horizontally. In fact, they will hit the ground at the same moment a ball dropped from the same height next to the gun will, given that it's dropped the moment the bullet leaves the barrel.
Making a primer more sensitive does nothing to effect it's ignition characteristics. A gun with a light hammer or striker hit would only have reliability of actually firing improved by a thinner back primer.

Barrel twist/ riflings will have a huge effect on the projectile to match that with what ammo runs best plus barrel length. I've shot ammo that's super accurate in one gun but is inches or feet off in another of the same caliber.
Just a note to the use of hollow point, they have been forbidden seance 1899, the use of them is categorized as a war crime
Hollow points for long range shooting aren't expansive. The tips are slightly hollow to create a uniformity in the tip shape between cartridges in order to improve accuracy. This is different than the way a traditional expanding bullet is designed.

The USMC has a section devoted to serving Marine Scout Snipers. They manufacture/assemble match grade rifles and ammunition. The ammunition is custom tuned to an individual rifle and the ammo is boxed up and marked for that specific rifle. A very intricate process that insures maximum effective accuracy of the system.
"think of a bullet as a plane wing" then shows a Boeing 737
THANK YOU!
The TLDR of it all is this. Snipers use Match Grade and sometimes even hand loaded ammunition. They want consistency in performance for more predictability, reducing the inherent mechanical errors.
In more detail... (As there are some issues with the info in the video)
Match Grade ammo is made in smaller quantities on dedicated lines so that more strict manufacturing tolerances can be maintained. Handloading is a more personalized version of this, where small batches are made for a specific rifle only, using hand operated tooling. A well made hand load, developed through testing of several tweaked loadings to find the best performing one in a given rifle, typically is the most accurate option.
The goal is consistency. You want each round/cartridge to perform as close as possible the every other round. The more consistent the variables, the less inherent deviation is built into the system from a mechanical standpoint. Even the best rifle and ammo combo will exhibit deviation in projectile impact point downrange, even when held motionless in a test rig.
Grains as a unit of measure are still commonly used in ammunition, though SI units (metric) is common in countries that use that system as standard for all things.
A grain is a measure of weight and is typically used to describe both the weight of the projectile (bullet) and the propellant (powder) charge within the case. They are not the same, but are linked, as to maintain safe operating pressures. Increased bullet weight typically means less propellant, to prevent a spike in pressure that can damage or dangerously destroy a firearm. It's down to inertia, as a heavier bullet accelerates slower and allows pressures to build behind it. All acceleration of the bullet happens inside the barrel, after that it is working with only what it had when it left the barrel, it is unpowered, and that is part of the definition of a ballistic body, which is why calculating bullet flight is called ballistics.
Heavier bullets leave the same barrel at a slower speed than lower weight bullets do. (If the pressures in the barrel are roughly the same) Heavier bullets typically have increased ballistic coefficients, which means that the increased aerodynamic performance aids the bullet performance even if it is slower. The bullet slows down less from drag, and it is pushed off course less from the wind. The lower drag is why a high BC bullet is going faster at some distance down range than a bullet that has lower BC even if it started off faster from the barrel.
Hollow point bullets used in precision ammo typically isn't designed with the increased lethality as a goal. The accuracy enhancing features are the goal, and a controlled expansion for increased lethality has design features that are typically harder to maintain with the same consistency. They may look similar, but two identical weight HP bullets, one for hunting and the other accuracy will have much different internal design characteristics. That said, precision focused HP bullets tend to be more fragile, so they often break apart more easily in a target, and that does often improve their lethality over bullets that do not, like FMJ. Though typically not as much as bullets designed to expand in a controlled manner.
Thanks for the DIY 🙏🏽😄
1:50 my mans did you really just say the bullet’s weight is a factor in how long it takes gravity to bring it down?
From a strictly physics standpoint I know why you’d cringe hearing that. However, heavier for caliber bullets do fly longer so it is correct. Though the weight of the bullet isn’t the reason. Old timers used to just say “use a heavier bullet to shoot longer ranges”.
They didn’t realize that all other things being equal (caliber, material, construction, ogive, boat tail,) the heavier bullet will have better ballistic coefficient and will fly further. This is actually because it’s longer. Quite a bit of the info in this video seems to have been gleaned from forums where people used terms known to shooters but not by those who don’t.
I’m a long range precision shooter and make a lot of my own ammo.
@@Heywoodthepeckerwood I see, that makes sense, thanks
I have heard of this before
1:52 Velocity has absolutely no effect on bullet drop. As soon as the bullet leaves the barrel it starts dropping to the ground at 9.8ms2 due to gravity, as stated. However, horizontal speed of an object doesn't change that constant. The only difference velocity makes is how far the bullet travels before it hits the ground.
The faster the bullet, the less time it spends in the air before hitting the target. This means gravity is acting on the bullet for a shorter amount of time. Drop = 1/2 * 32.2 ft/sec^2 * time^2
It's not a linear relationship, the bullet drop is proportional to the square of the travel time.
6.5 creedmore is my go to rifle round for long distance. I love my AR 6.5 creedmore.
@r2 308 is TRASH!!!!!! It's so outdated that it's not even funny. I rather shoot a 6.8 SPC rather then a 308.

Rounds can not accelerate after leaving the barrel.
If you shoot the bullet with a faster one the energy will definitely transfer over and speed up the bullet
