Default Cva optima load set up ?

I am short on time was out yesterday with the optima thumb hole set up and only had a chance to set up at the 50 yards target.
I drop down the bore 90 gr. of BH and the 240 XTP Mag: bullet with the MMP black sabot
2" high at the 50
I also tried the same load wit the SST Bonded bullet but needed to switch the yellow super glide sabot to a MMP #24 black sabot both shot same point of impact 2" over center at 50 yards
My ? any one have any idea the bullet path down range to 125 yards?

OK, here is my wild wild guess.

At 75 yard them bullet will be about 2 1/2" over center.

At 100 yard them bullet will be about 2" over center.

At 125 yard them bullet will be about center.
