another bullistics question
 

Hi guys, I was out shooting my triumph this week and our range doesn't go further than 100yds. Got 1" groups with 100gr 777 and .45 Hornady sabots (SST). I was wondering what my ft.pounds andtrajectory would be at 150 and 200yds? Thanks very much.

.452 diameter bullet? Weight?

sorry, .50 cal firearm and Hornady .45-250gr SST sabots

Here's a great resource for ballistic info.

thanks for the link, but there are too many variables that I don't have access too, good tool though

Here's another one...I'm working on the exact ballistic info but this should get you very close (crossing it with the Hornady website). The big benefit here is the muzzle velocity. I match that with the SST ballistic co. (stated on their website site) and you're pretty much there.

Final piece to the puzzle.

40.7This is with 100 gr of T7 loose. Personally, I would try 110 gr or 120 gr. Those are excellent loads and produce a flatter bullet at range (200 yds). As always though, please don't attempt a shot unless you have practices that particular distance.
