I bought one today and need some actual data from someone who has shot the round. What is the bullet drop on a 140 grain Nosler Partition bullet from 200 yards to 300 yards?

Thanks

In order to give accurate numbers we would have to know the actual muzzle velocity of your rifle and load.It would also be helpful to know the range you intend to zero the rifle at to determine where the point of impact will be at various ranges.

According to Rem. zeroed at 250 yards I have a 2.6" drop at 300 and I am 1.6" high at 200. Just looking to see if someone that owns the gun actually tested what Rem. is saying

Those numbers sound like they would be in the ballpark for a factory rifle shooting 140gr factory loads.My own custom with 140gr handloads(ballistic tips) is 2.75" high at 100yards,about 3.5" high at 200yards,about1" high at 300yards and 5" to 6" low at 400 yards.My loads will produce 3550fps in my rifle so a factory rifle shooting factory loads will have slightly more bullet drop.Partitions will also drop more than ballistic tips at the longer ranges.
