Re: ballistics for a 9mm carbine

I am assuming you have a Marlin Camp Rifle.

I have one too and love it for raccoons on the ground.

You will start with a muzzle velocity of 1110 fps. with 339 fp energy. That is if the barrel was only 4".

Without shooting through a chronograph I would have no idea of how to do the math.

I can tell you that from my own experience the bullet is right on at 50 and 75 yards but drops about 4-5" at 100.

If I try shooting much further than that, the target looks more like a shotgun pattern than a rifle group.

Mine is fun to shoot but not a tack driver by any stretch of the imagination.
