Use some software, there are free ballistics programs available on the internet. A bullet throughout it's flight is subjected to the constant force of gravity, an accleration of about 10m/s^2 downwards, so the total drop ends up being a function of flight time. A high velocity bullet drops less than a slower one at the same range because it reaches the target quicker and therefore spent less time dropping.

How far does a bullet drop at 1000 yards?

There is no one answer, since there is no one bullet. The drop of a bullet is a function of the speed- how long it took to get to 1000 yards. Some bullets will not TRAVEL 1000 yards. All other things being equal, the faster bullet will drop less.


What is bullet drop for 7mm magnum?

Bullet drop for a 7mm Magnum refers to the vertical distance a bullet falls from its initial trajectory due to gravity as it travels toward a target. This drop increases with distance, and factors such as bullet weight, velocity, and environmental conditions can influence it. For precise shooting, shooters often consult ballistics charts or use ballistic calculators to account for bullet drop at various ranges. Understanding bullet drop is crucial for accurate long-range shooting with the 7mm Magnum.

How fast does a bullet drop?

The speed at which a bullet drops due to gravity depends on multiple factors, including the caliber of the bullet, the initial velocity at which it was fired, and the angle at which it was shot. Generally, bullets drop at a rate of about 9.8 m/s² due to gravity. Wind resistance can also influence the rate of drop.


How far can you shoot a 12 gauge gun until the bullet starts to drop?

Due to gravity, the bullet starts to drop the second it leaves the barrel. You can calculate the drop by factoring mass and velocity with gravity (9.8 m/s²).
