What exactly is ballistic coefficient? What is it a measure of? What does it mean?
As I understand it, a bullet with "better" ballistic coefficient will penetrate better, and is often achieved by having a projectile that's longer than it's bore diameter.
I've heard that adding fins to a projectile ruins ballistic coefficient.
I'm confused. Help!
