I know. Another one. It's either all the variables involved or my thick head because this isn't sinking in very well. There's a lot of good info in the threads linked further below. Thanks to all for the good reading.
So, I found this calculator (yeah, probably a dupe), but it seems to conflict with the chart Crab Bait posted. Of course, that chart doesn't appear to factor in bullet length and I'm not sure what barrel length is assumed.

I used this picture for bullet lengths. Not sure how accurate it is.

Does the calculator seem accurate to you? Is there such a thing as too high SG?

This is just info from the net, but I thought enough of it to save it... others may shoot it down.
