Whatever happened to that young man and that pretty Redbone? I haven't seen him since he got married.

gravity work the same on all calibers...if you hold a 22 bullet and a 44 mag bullet in each hand at the exact same height and let them drop at the exact same time the bullets would hit the ground at the same time...so the drop has everything to do with speed...same with the bullet fired from a gun...the faster the speed the further the bullet travels before hitting the ground thus a flatter trajectory...

in deer rifles such as 243, 2506, 6mm 270, 280 7 mag the trajectories are about the same...set them up at 2 inches high at 100 yards and you will be in the kill zone between 25 yards and 300 yards...takes out the guess work...

My 12 gauge is sighted in for anything I can shine in a tree. Grip it and rip it.
