Anyone been on the Hornady Ballistic Calculator web page lately?

Been trying the last couple of days to run some numbers but with no luck.

What's worse, Hornady doesn't say "down for repairs", but instead say "404 Page Not Found", which is not good.

I pinged them, but I suspect I won't hear back until after Turkey Day (as in bird, not country).
 
I just went in through Hornady's front door instead of my usual shortcut and clicked my way to the "Standard Ballistics Calculator" and it still comes up an error 404.

They will probably email me tomorrow and I'll see what's up.

Hi Roklok
I read your post on Caprivi. Congratulations.
I plan to hunt there for buff in 2026 oct.
How was the land, very dry ? But à lot of buffs ?
Thank you / merci

Chopped up the whole thing as I kept hitting the 240 character limit...
Found out the trigger word in the end... It was muzzle or velocity. dropped them and it posted.:)

2,822fps, ES 8.2
This compares favorably to 7 Rem Mag. with less powder & recoil.

I know that this thread is more than a year old but as a new member I thought I would pass along my .280AI loading.
I am shooting F Open long range rather than hunting but here is what is working for me and I have managed a 198.14 at 800 meters.
That is for 20 shots. The 14 are X's which is a 5" circle.
