Default RE: bullets drop faster than normal??

brad...I've been shooting black powder since 1975, one concern I have is manufacturers pushing the idea that deer should be shot at 200 yards....In my opinion, 150 is plenty...Once you move to MLs like the Savage, in my opinion, you might as well pull out the '06...

All that being said, set your scope where you are 2 1/2 - 3 inches high at 100, this will help flatten out the trajectory for you...Also, buy a range finder...

In my Knight Disc, I use the 250 Shockwaves, 90grs Goex FFF, sight in 2 1/2 high at 100 and I'm 2 1/2 low at 150...Good Luck...
