Does anyone have a good website for ballistics charts, i.e ranges, weights, speed, drops, etc?

You can google balistic calulators and it pulls up quite a bit of them.
All my favorites are saved on my home computer or I would post them

JBM Ballistics is usually considered the best. 
If it is tourist season, why can't we shoot them?

JBM, hands down. Although all ballistics calculators are estimates only, this is the gold standard.

Excellent, GUI program.


I tried it out and thought it was horrible. No drop tables, no info beyond about 500 yards...and it requires a browser running Java. If you want to go to that trouble, download Bryan Litz' free Java-based desktop app from Berger Bullets' website. JBM has all the features one would ever need and - most important - it's results are the best I've seen. They are amazingly close to real-world dope if you enter the inputs correctly. I'm not saying it couldn't use a few improvements in the user interface.

I wasn't upset about the black cat crossing my path this morning but mouthing "your fu@#ed" as he passed was just rude.
