This episode explains how knowing fundamental ballistics help us make clean, ethical kills in the field. Jayden Quinlan (ballistic mastermind at Hornady) shines the light on how to compensate for steep angles, for wind, and for bullet drop in various air density and temperatures. We talk hunting bullets and the evolution of projectiles and how to choose the right modern hunting bullet for your hunting tasks.
What a terrific, informative, entertaining discussion... Hope you all enjoy this as much as I did!

0:15.0 | cartridges, more capable projectiles, |
0:18.0 | and of course the dial-up scopes, |
0:20.0 | the advanced rangefinders and so forth |
0:22.0 | that come as part of that package. |
0:25.0 | Today I've got a really special guest on the line with me. |
0:28.5 | This is Jayden Quinlan with Hornity. |
0:31.5 | Engineering Genius, ballistic, |

0:55.4 | product launches, insider looks kind of behind the scenes at Hornity. I've been |
1:02.3 | able to go out there and see the Hornity manufacturing facility and spend some time at the range back when you guys were just starting to work with Doppler radar which really shook up the world of ballistics right? |

1:26.7 | And in a few different matches along the way. |

1:30.1 | Anyway, overtime, I've come to appreciate Jayden's grasp of ballistics, both advanced and the fundamental level, which of course is what most of us hunters need, but not just that, his ability to communicate the concepts of ballistics is as good |
1:47.9 | as any I've ever heard and better than most. |
1:50.1 | So let's, yeah, let's dig right in and just address that question. |
