hello everyone, I'm new to this forum and I was wondering if anyone had any load info on a T/C. I've got a 28" factory barrell w/brake installed. I'm wanting to use either 150gr. accubonds or 168gr. TTSX's. Any input would be greatly appreciated. thank's in advanced.
thank's alot Grumulkin, that is an awesome group!! with some excellent shooting I might add. I thought about 200's also, but the only thing I'll be shooting is deer in Ga. and Miss. those deer usually weigh +/- 220 in Miss. and about #180 in Ga. I shoot alot of power/gas lines here and beanfields/food plots(200-400yrds+)there. Thats why I decided on the lighter, flatter shooting bullets. I really do appreciate it and I'll keep that load in mind.
What you need to do is look at velocities and ballistic coefficients. I believe you'll find that if you sight in 1 to 2 inches high at 100 yards you'll be somewhere in the range of 12 to 16 inches low at 400 yards which is pretty easy to estimate. I think you'll also see that at distances out to 400 yards there is not going to be a whole lot of difference in bullet drop between 150 and 200 gr. bullets.
In my opinion, at long range, accuracy trumps a lot of other things.
