Drag Models Explained (G1 vs G7 vs CDM) | Long Range Made Simple

In this episode, Wade breaks down one of the most confusing topics in long range shooting, ballistic drag models.

What is BC?
Why does it matter?
And which one should you actually be using?

We cover:

• What ballistic coefficient (BC) really means
• Why higher BC isn’t always the full story
• G1 vs G7 (and why G1 needs to go)
• When G7 is more than enough for hunting
• What CDMs and PDMs are, and when they actually matter

This is part of Wade’s long range “library” series, built to give hunters practical, usable knowledge without getting lost in the weeds.

If you’ve ever been confused about what to plug into your ballistic app… this is the one.
