ELEY BC

G1 drag profile is pretty bad for most of 22LR that shoot in transsonic. I wouldn't be surprised if G7, at least up to 100 yards, is better choice for ELEY. RA4 should be the most adequate for 22LR but it depends from case to case. I don't know why some respectable companies in rimfire business still publish G1 BCs for their ammo and make monkeys of themselfs
G1 for mine is typically around 0.150 (0.140 on one rifle, 0.163 on another). I have gone back to using Strelok mostly. If using my kestrel, I have been known to add DSF at 300 to true observations. But 0.150 is good to 200 for me. But I have had some unexplained variations using DSF before that have caused me to get bad solutions. So Strelok gets the call on the rimfire.
To note - I ALWAYS trust my chrono. When confirming before a match, I will very slightly adjust BC to account for conditions. Any large swings in BC are not done before a match. I have shot enough Team/Match, and screwed myself by making large changes, to know better.

I run G1 with 0.146 for my current batch of SK Standard Plus out of a B14r Steel. I used LabRadar data compared to Strelok tables to get the initial value and then trued it out to 200 on observed impacts.
I wish I could test out strelok. A lot of guys I talk to like it better and have better results with it.
I still use Strelok, I like more than ABQ.
Probably just used to it so it's easier for me, but I find ABQ has way to much going on and a bit of a pain to use.
G7 .060 at 1095 fps and 38 grn for bullet weight got mine good to 300yrds
With the 22LR I play with inputs to match what I see on targets

Nice. I have been lucky to have only had to mess with my velocity with the lots of SK I have. With how hard it is to get SK, I’m going to look at eley.
This is my data for Eley Tenex and Eley match both with the EPS bullet. I’ve worked on and verified it over 10 years. It’s correct in my 28” Winchester 52’s. Way off in my 24” 52’s.
I’ve had 3 Unertls fitted with custom reticules for this data and windage dots at 100 and 200 yards. I’ve found no issues yet.
