Projectile Compare (Chart)

Overlays two projectiles' trajectories from the same rifle setup (same zero, atmosphere and wind), so the difference is down to the bullets alone.

Usage

  • Reached from Projectile Comparison (drawer → Tools & System), which shows the chart and the table together on one page with the inputs beneath them. It used to be two widgets; those still work in a layout saved before the page existed, but neither can be added to a new one.
  • Until two projectiles are chosen the page prompts you to pick them.
  • Configurable (gear):
    • Projectile A / B: A defaults to the active load; pick B by searching the projectile library and My Projectiles. From the page the full projectile picker opens, so a bullet published with more than one BC model is compared as the model you chose there.
    • Velocity override: set either bullet’s muzzle velocity; leave blank to use the profile’s. Your saved load is untouched.
    • Compare: the channel to plot: drop, velocity or energy.
    • X axis: range or time of flight, with an automatic or manual grid (max and step).
  • The comparison is shared with Projectile Compare (Table): configure once, read it both ways.

Output

  • Both projectiles’ curves overlaid on one chart, in the active units, with a legend identifying A and B.
