troy711, cleavers are exactly how you described that other store. If you dont think the same way as your an amatuer idiot in their minds, but yes their online service is very good.

I want to know how many shots it took. I shoot at 1000 yards with a x24 magnification optic and it's hard to see.
I ran the math, with a 25m zero to hit at 1000 yards you would need 96.67 MIL of elevation which means the bullet would drop almost 97m:s
Surprised it had enough energy to even burst the balloon at 1000.

How'd you get the 97m out of curiosity?

From the video flight time was about 3 seconds

v=u+at
v= 0 + 9.81 *3
final velocity = 29.43m/s
v^2=u^2+2as
s=29.43^2/(2*9.81)
s=44.145m
Total bullet drop = 45m
Angle needed= 2.68 degrees = 47.8 mil
Thats just basic physics although feel free to correct me if one of those formulas is wrong cause im just going off the top of my head. They don't take into account wind resistance and so forth so the drop should actually be less.

A 4 second flight time is 78.5m of drop and a 5 second flight time is a 122.6m drop.

I wont comment on the maths, but I'm assuming they edited out many shots for the video.

Mate I just punched the bullet info into isnipe and hit compute. It works every single time I shoot 1000+ yards so I know it's right.
Also mine is a bit out, I have it set to meters not yards.

Yeah I didnt bother looking for the bullet info lol... My drop for a 4 second shot was 78.5m neglecting wind resistance so your calculator would be a lot more accurate, still they are reasonably (if you call a few meters reasonable lol) close
