I am kind of shocked nobody has even commented on the database.... it was a solid week of work running all the bullet dimensions through the two Kolbe calculators and organizing all the data in the spreadsheet....  ???

Perhaps my plans to get a LabRadar and continue the research in 2 years time will be a waste of time, too?....  :-\

Not a waste of time at all Bob . I’ve got it saved and once I’m able to get shooting again , I’ll definately be using it with Streloc. Again good work . I’ll post if I see any variances . Thanks again

Spreadsheets and fancy plotted graphics don't hit targets, practice does.
You can take all the math in the world but take a gun in the range you don't know and you won't hit worth shait.

Bob, my guess towards the lack of comments is due to shell shock when you realize just how much time you spend towards progressing our hobby of airgunning👍👍 A big thank you for all your time and willingness to share it freely. Hopefully I will be able to contribute towards the database his spring/summer

Bob, I find all of your work extremely valuable and educational. I greatly appreciate your work!

I’ll put a link to your table over at the AirgunGuild.

Bob

That is and will be an outstanding data base, I know from your past works,  ;)

I am attempting to get hold on it, but since I don't shoot bullets,
I am not sure, I should provide any info that can/may be of help, possibly?

I go stand in the corner now, till I learn more, I hope.  ;)

Tia,
Don

PM me anything you think should be added.... The bullets in the database are moulds I have myself, or bullets or pellets I have designed (and therefore have the dimensions for).... plus a few swaged bullets that are readily available, and a few other bullets that guys have sent me.... I can add more bullets, but the moulds must be available, and dimensions, including the weight, known so that I can run them through the Kolbe calculators.... They must also be, IMO, reasonably useful in airguns, and not so unusual or rare to be of interest to only one or two people.... This isn't a "make work" project, I want the information to be useful to those shooting bullet in ALL calibers of PCPs....

thanks Bob for all the database work. Still no idea how to use the information and the app, but I'll start learing soon.
