Ep. 029 - External Ballistics Part One

I’m a big physics nerd and these discussions are like crack to me. Huge kudos to Jayden. It isn’t easy to break down complex concepts like this into a digestible format. He’s great at that.

These recent ballistics podcasts really are super interesting! Thanks :)

The Hornady Podcast is seriously the best thing I've found on youtube. I've been a reloader for many, many years. Retired law enforcement, retired competition shooter and currently reload and hunt hogs around our place in Oklahoma. Jayden has a talent for breaking down the complex concepts into something the average (ish) person can understand. The analogies, while perhaps not 100% accurate, are great at breaking the complexity into something most of us can understand.

The 90 degree force on the bullet from wind is called gyroscopic procession. Same as a helicopter, if you wan it to tilt forward you need to apply force left or right depending on direction of rotation. Amazing how one principal works for different applications. I have learned so much from your podcasts, thank's guys.

I love the topic of rifle ballistics. Thoroughly enjoyed this. Thanks for sharing.

Ballistics is a topic to explore. Thanks for posting this!

Worth the time to listen, you will learn .

This so insightful I can’t thank you enough. Keep the tech info coming!

Great conversation. I'm going to need to listen to it again.

I find these talks very interesting even if I only understand a small percentage of what’s said lol. I’m a fan of Hornady products, quality and name. As much as I love being Australian and living here, only get to watch at all the stuff we can’t do here on the internet. Thanks guys.

From a long range shooter over here in Ireland thank you. Shooting 20 years and I’ve learned a lot. Thanks guys.

Unbelievable group of guys to have on your team. This is why they make some of the best ammunition

This was awesome even for someone that's "just" a hunter. I noticed my comeups on 4dof were different depending on wind speed, which made zero sense to me until I listened to this. Going straight to part 2.

Just an enthralling video discussion. The baby bird analogy mouth open was so apt - I need more

Ballistics for “ Dummies “ , like me. I love it. Thank you for sharing. Steve

Woahhhh this is so interesting. I know the man in the grey shirt isnt making the company as much money as if he was working in his usual department but please please have him speak more!

Outstanding!! Best online podcast I’ve seen in a long time.

Do an episode on that test fixture. Might be kind of cool to see it.

This is the first Hornady podcast I have watched. I really enjoyed the intricate details in Jayden’s explanations on a few topics I have never thought of. I have some binge watching to do now. Subscribed!

Thanks for another great podcast. Lots of information flowing here, I hope most people can grasp it. I think Jayden did a wonderful job explaining this. I know this was a big help for me. It also helped me with knowledge I had, that I didn't just dream some stuff up. Hey, love y'all products. I have never seen one of your bullets bounce off a critter. Or critter say, is that all you got. I believe your company is on the leading edge of competition in this industry. Blessings your way. I'm sure, Joyce would be very proud of the people that work for Hornady. Take care.
