? for Redhawk
« on: November 04, 2007, 01:22:01 PM »
You have posted 90g of T7 with 195g bullet out of encore. My ? is how much drop @ 150 & 200 yards with what zero.
I am shooting 90 with 250g tc bullet right at an inch @ 100 yards. I am thinking of trying the 195g bullets.
                                                                        Thanks Sportsman223

With my Encore sighted in 2.5 inch high at 100 yards, I am right about dead on at 150 and about 3.5 inches low at 200 yards.  I have shot at targets at the 150 and 200 yard distances with this zero and I am confident with a 200 yards shot holding dead on.

I am getting 3 to 3.5 inch groups at 200 yards, which I feel is very good with a muzzleloader.
