Default Bullet Drop

Here is my set up, CVA Kodiak with a Leupold 2-7x33 scope shooting 2 pellets of Tripple 7 (100grs) pushing the 350gr hornady FPB,and my CVA has a 28in barrel..I've been shooting the FPB since they came out and absolutly love them,my Kodiak will put them in 1 to 1.5inche groups all day long at 100yds.I love the bullet,but have never felt the need to shoot past 100yds..Well I recently got on a new hunting lease and a longer shot can be expected,its fairly open..So im wanting to strech my shot a little bit..How much drop could I expect from a 100yd zero to 150yds? Im gonna try it at 150 to see for myself,but I would like to know a general idea of how much it will drop..Do you think I otta maybe try 150grs of powder? I've always heard that 150grs of powder is really a waste.
