![]() ![]() We do not cover long range shooting and sniping trajectories. This website is devoted to hunting, with all rifle trajectories sighted to give a flat, point blank range (± 2 inches = ± 50mm). That is, the range is 0 to 300 yards (= 0 to 275 metres) and the sighting range is +2 to -6 inches (+50mm to -150mm). Straight-pulls have been around almost as long as traditional actions and are wildly popular in European markets but have been ignored by American manufacturers until now. The reference for these ballistics has been mostly ADI and some Wikipedia for the more obscure big game calibers.Īs a standard to aid in comparing calibers, all trajectory charts have the same axes. This year, Savage is disrupting the bolt action rifle market (again) by introducing the first American made straight-pull rifle the Impulse. Within each group sharing the same projectile diameter, the rating is in terms of increasing muzzle energy for the heaviest projectile that can normally be fired in that particular caliber. The Calibers below are in ascending order based on each caliber’s projectile diameter. It is not a complete list of every possible rifle calibre. These lists contain the current popular calibres and some wildcats. To see a list of calibers based simply on muzzle energy, see the Most Powerful Calibers page. Following is a list of 160 hunting rifle calibers, from the smallest (17HMR) to the largest (700 Nitro Express). ![]()
