I get a very large number of questions about ballistics terminology, cartridge specific questions and a lot of questions from very new or even aspiring first time gun owners. Well today I am going to help you with the “ballistics code” so to speak. Often you can hear a conversation between two experienced rifleman and it sounds almost like a foreign language. So today I will tell not just what many of these terms mean but why they matter and even why some don’t matter that much at all.
Tune in Today as we Discuss…
- What is bullet vs. what is a cartridge vs. what is a case
- What is trajectory
- What is ballistic coefficient
- Why more velocity or a lighter bullet is often not the answer
- What is sectional density
- What is expansion, why does it matter
- What is a magnum round vs. a non magnum round
- What do all the numbers mean
- Why is a 38 Special a “special”
- How can a 38 Special be the same caliber as a .357 magnum
- What is necking up or necking down
- How are most “new” rifle rounds created
- How can a short 308 be almost as powerful as a 30-06

I think a lot of people have misconceptions (both positive and negative) about concealed carry.  It is a bit more limited then many seem to believe in some situations. Additionally it is far safer than many who are opposed to carrying believe.
I am also running a discount special on the Members Support Brigade from now until midnight Feb. 14th 2010. For Details Click Here
Join me today as we discuss…
- The origins of the 2nd Amendment
- The real story of the how and why of the Bill of Rights they don’t teach in schools
- If you need to exercise one right then you need to exercise them all
- About 100,000 women are raped in the US a year, women with guns and training are the solution
- The main reason you should carry is to protect others, self defense in many situations is limited
- The person who carries is less likely to be in any altercation than one who does not
- Why you should carry in your home not just away from it
- Why carrying improves your life even if nothing ever goes wrong
- The fact that you are more likely to need a gun than you might believe
- How “threat probability” plays into the need for concealed carry
