Default How close would the 200 SW

I had this question ask of me this evening. If the Nikon Omega scope is on using 250SW and 3 pellets how close would the 200 SW with 110 gr of T7 be as far as the yardage circles go. Do you think it would be close?

Shoot it and find out, and even if it doesnt you can still use the circles just find out what range they are accurate at. Like it says it should be 100, 150, 200, 225 and 250 with 150 grains of pellets and a 250 gr bullet. Yours might be like 100, 145, 190, 215 and 230. Hope this helps.

I bet they will be closer if you use a hornady 67272 250 gr SST ML w/ 110 grains over the TC SW 250. Note the slight difference in yellow/Red ballistic tips.

Let us know the outcome,
Thanks,
Steve

Not sure what the exact velocities of the 2 loads are (I haven't chronoed those exact loads but have done 130gr 250 and 100gr 200 before) but a close estimate of 2200fps for the 250 and 2050fps for the 200 puts them within about an inch or soof the same trajectory out to 250 yards. That should be close enough for practical use.
