Abstract

An attempt has been made in this article to study the relationship between the F of M of 7.62mm Ammunition and the probability of hitting a 12"* 12" stationary target (i.e the size of the chest of a man), at ranges upto 500 yards. Firing trials have been carried out to varify the mathematical derived conclusions.
