You mean you're looking for the ballistics? Give us apowder type, charge size, elevation/temp,and sight-indistanceyou're interested in so we can run it in our calculators. Should be close to actual results.

http://biggameinfo.com/BalCalc.aspx

go to that site which is a ballistic calculator. The 250 grain Shockwave is a .452 diameter. It weighs (of course) 250 grains. Has a BC of .210 and a SD of .175

You can plug in numbers and distances and get some ideas of the killing power of the projectile, the drop, etc. It will also help you determine where you want to sight in your scope at to match your hunting situation.

Trajectory
Sight in 3.5" high at 100yds. Will put you on at 150yds,about 8.5" low at 200yds, and 23" low at 250yds.

Energy
100yds: 1180 ft/lbs
150yds: 968 FPE
200yds: 800 FPE
250yds: 685 FPE

Poor choice past distances of 150 yds on deer sized game.

Sight 2.5" high at 100, will put you on at 150. 5.5" low at 200, 15" low at 250.

Energy
100yds: 1720 FPE
150yds: 1470 FPE
200yds: 1252 FPE
250yds: 1070 FPE

These are not exact numbers, and must be tested yourself. These are just approximations on actual results you'll likely get.
