I am going to be attempting some 1000 yard shots and I can not find any ballistics tables showing what the drop would be past 500 yards. If you could please assist me in finding some table or something, I would greatly appreciate it!
The beauty of the Second Ammendment is it won't be needed until they try and take it.

The site below is excellent. You can set the caliber, yardage, etc to what ever you want. You'll need to know the ballistic coefficient and velocity of the bullet you'll be using though. http://www.biggameinfo.com/BalCalc.aspx

Hornady website has a good one also. http://www.hornady.com/ballistics-resource With any of these you need to know your actual velocity so use a chronograph, and even then they might be off some as BC is not the same for a bullet depending on rifling marks and such on the bullet but they will get you close. At that range wind, humidity, barametric pressure, altitude all come into play
