$54 @ Mid South...

This rifle was sighted in for 110 gr 2f T7 and a 300 gr Nosler Partition. 3 inches high at 100 yds. The 340's @ 110 2f T7 shot to the same point of impact. Odd

Kinda says something about the effect of BC over a 100 yards. I am sure those Precision DC's have a hefty BC. But, I am also certain of what the .458 Nosler will do to an elk.
Oh I'm not changing from my Nosler's. I was just playing with some left over DC's I had.I was comparing the drop from that card Chapman had posted.

http://www.huntingnet.com/forum/tm.aspx?m=2936897

The card said 8.85 inch of drop from 100 - 200 w/ 100 gr T7. My figures showed a 9.58 drop w/ 100 gr T7 using PR's BC (.376)and 9.39 drop w/ 110 gr T7 using a corrected BC of .280
The difference could be due to different barrel lengths and guns???

Time to go wake the boy's, have some breaky and go make some smoke.
