Thread: ELD BCs - Any Litz data?

Other facts:
Litz thinks highly of the LabRadar and sells them.
Litz has just had a tussle with Hornady over their Hornady 4 DOF Ballistics Calculator.
Hornady are putting great stead on their BCs verified by their radar.
I have never believed a lot of manufacturers' high BCs (including Hornady's) and have relied on Litz to come along with real life proven data - I guess what the OP was after here.
When will Litz do the goods on ELDs - that's a good question given his paper he wrote attacking their calculator. If he is a nasty guy he would seek to disprove the claimed BC figures. He may have already done the analysis and has not published. Something that could happen if the BCs prove to be correct. I also don't think he is a nasty type.

I love Litzs data but he is a bit of a problem when he keeps changing his BCs on the Berger bullets, usually down....don't forget he works for Berger & they won't be loving Hornady at the moment.

Changing the Data makes his $100 books obsolete.....

A client was talking to him at the Shot Show this year, he clammed right up when he figured out my client knew way too much about shooting the 375 a long long way...

Client come away a little disappointed to be fair...
