Trajectory Help
Hey all.
.50 cal. 100 gr 777 3F.... 250 gr Hornady SST.
Currently 1 in high at 25 yds.
Is there something on the web that will calculate where the bullet should be at 50 and 100 yds? I haven't had enough time to play at the range. Thanks!

I just received an email from Hornady today. I shoot 100gr Pyrodex Pellets under a 250gr. SST from a TC Impact (26" bbl). Hornady stated:
"the velocity with a 100 gr charge is approx. 1890 fps. With a 150 yrd zero, the bullet will impact 2.9" high at 100 yds and 7.2" low at 200 yds. Thanks"
Of course your 777 should boost that velocity a bit. That's quite a bit more arc than they show for a 150 gr. charge, but if you know how high to aim who cares? As long as you hit consistently.

What will you do if the buck of a lifetime steps out at 125yds? Luck is where preparation and opportunity meet.Go to the range and find your point blank range.Then you will be ready.
