RE: Shockwave/SST performance @ 200 yds
If you are sighted in dead on at 150 yds, they are only supposed to drop about 3-4" at 200 yards.
- I know that now, but I'm not complaining! Honestly, I tried to euthanize him from the tripod (same distance) with the "second-shot" load as I mentioned above (295g PB HP - 2-50g pellets of T7). I was right on-line with him windage-wise, but the bullet fell about 5 feet short of the mark. So, having only two back-up loads to begin with, I had to make sure I ended the suffering with my final shot.
I would love to try the 200g .50 SST to see how well they group (if I could find some). Imagine how flat those things must fly!
