Thor Ballistics?
 

This may have been posted before, but I asked Terry for some ballistics and this is what he says he gets with 120 gr BH 209:


These are approximations based on "0" 100 yards
yards muzzle 50 100 150 200 250 300

250 gr BT
vel 2200 2019 1849 1690 1545 1413 1294
drop -1.5 0.3 0 -2.79 -8.52 -17.72 -31.25
energy 2687 2263 1898 1586 1325 1109 930


yards muzzle 50 100 150 200 250 300

300 gr BT
vel 2030 1884 1747 1619 1501 1391 1292
drop -1.5 0.45 0 -3.25 -9.66 -19.86 -34.39
energy 2746 2365 2034 1747 1501 1289 1112

That is a pretty stout load (powder wise) but is interesting. I am not sure I could consistently shoot 120 gr without flinching!

Anyone done their own testing?

Now I see why the 300gr Thor was shooting dead on at 50yd and 100 yds. There's only 1/2" difference.

I love the Thors.

Look at the energy it retains. With the expansion the Barnes bullet has. No game is safe from me now. :p

Barnes web page with the .250 and .295 gr should be a good source of info also.Muley for possible long range shots with any bullet the heavier 300 gr is the way to go, both in BC and energy..there outstanding bullets! Ray

I would think the Barnes ballistics will be even flatter. Smaller bullet.
