Good book on external and internal ballistics

[evetseel]

Any recommendations on a good book on bullet ballistics (rifle) internal and external. Nothing too forensic, more entry level for the experienced reloader?

Rheinmetall Handbook on Weaponry;

R. Germershausen Ed. Handbook On Weaponry : Free Download, Borrow, and Streaming : Internet Archive

The very rare Rheinmetall handbook on weapons design and science, this is 788 pg. of classic German engineering. A true must have!

It won’t cover reloading but it covers ballistics, weapon design etc.

Rifle Accuracy the Facts by Harold Vaughan is an excellent read to understand what doe and does not affect accuracy

Jim Boatright has submitted several pieces about bullet design along the years that is now being brought into mainstream (well lathe turned solid designs ) such as Warner’s Flat line bullet line

If you search you will fine some on line papers he has written which are quite “heavy” but fascinating

I have some forensic ballistic books in a store cub hord I can’t recall the titles of but they give interesting insight into terminal ballistics (human) but relevant to any organism I guess
