CVA .45 distance accuracy??
 
hey guys...i got a CVA magbolt 150 in .45 caliber that i got a gun show last year. i finally got around to taking it out to the range to see how well the scope was sighted in. i shot it at 50 yds and it was dead on, but was rushed for time and didn' t shoot at 100. how much drop will i be noticing on a 100-125 yd shot with 150 grains of powder on a 180 grain XP mag. sabot?? im only using it for deer here in NC and was just wondering what kind of distance i' m gonna have with it. it' ll be my first witht black powder and i need a little coaching. thanks a lot.

Unless you have a muzzle velocity and ballistic coefficient, I can' t begin to give you an accurate answer. You don' t even state what type of propellant, though I suspect pellets.

Like to give you an idea, but the best way is to pull the trigger anyway.

sorry for the lack of info. randy. yeah im using Hodgdon Pyrodex pellets and i have no clue what the muzzle velocity or ballistic coefficients are. I mean I was just looking for a rough estimate. I' m guessing it should be no more than 2" , but I could be wrong. thanks.
