Paul,
I looked up my data on the Buffalo 285 and the load I used was 100gr of 777 2F for a velocity of 1750fps at 5 yards. Shot about 1 to 1.5 inch groups and loaded pretty easy in my gun when swabbing between shots. I live at 6500 feet and the trajectory up here using a 6" pointblank range sight in puts it about 3" high at 85 yards, dead on at 150 yardsand 3" low at 177 yards. It's down about 6.6" at 200 yards and doesn't dropbelow 1000fpe until about 330 yards. They should make a good deer load, maybe even elk.
all I can say is wow!! I already have a great deer round, but I'm almost out of Precision Extreme Elite HD in 330 grains. Now with getting 180 rounds I should be good to go for a while now. Good luck in getting some from the guy I got mine from.
Paul
