6.5 Creedmoor — ballistic table
11 loads from the pointMoA database with drop, wind drift and energy computed by the app's engine. Manufacturer data, identical conditions for the whole calibre — the rows can be compared with one another.
Reference conditions
Zero at 100 m, line of sight 50 mm above the bore, 15 °C, 1013.25 hPa, 50 % humidity, wind 4 m/s from 3 o'clock (full value). Muzzle velocity and ballistic coefficient from the manufacturer's data sheet; the velocity was measured in the manufacturer's test barrel — a shorter barrel gives less.

The table is indicative: it is computed from catalogue data under reference conditions, not from your barrel and your lot of ammunition. Verify the trajectory on the range before relying on it.
