I put a new Leupold scope on the T/C Encore 26" bbl .50 cal and wanted to get it dialed in. Well, ran out of time and didn't get a chance to shoot a group, but I got it shooting a shade over 2" high at 100 yds and dead on L to R. I'll try to get back to shoot groups soon.
I was wondering what the downrange trajectory for this load might be with that sight in. I'm shooting 300 gr Nosler Partition. 458 cal, 110 grains BH 209, MMP Sabot. I think muzzle velocity should be something around 1925 fps. Any ideas? Thanks!

I just worked up this load for my Triumph....

300gn Remington HP .457

125+1.681603

I got these stats off a ballistics program called PointBlank, free downloadable.
The one below is also a good and easy to use program.
