[QUOTE="TMH, post: 985939, member: 83409"] So is the lower impact due to the Hornady cartridge being 240fps slower? When I look at the ballistics of the two rounds (gun data.org ballistic calculator) I don't see the same drop- 3/4 of an inch at 250 yard. I realize that I would not see the difference in the table when both rounds are zeroed at 100 yards, but at 250 I should see well over 3 1/2 inches. Maybe the calculator has bad data. This particular calculator allows the user to select the brand of ammo and particular grains ans bullet style. Kinda cool but the result here does not make sense to me. Range Drop 0 -1.4945 -1.4941 50 -0.2821 -0.2156 100 -0.0001 0.0051 150 -0.7577 -0.9252 200 -2.6788 -3.1099 250 -5.9057 -6.663 - See more at: [url=http://gundata.org/ballistic-calculator/#sthash.EcwlDJ1Q.dpuf]Ballistic Calculator GunData.org[/url] [/QUOTE]
